Rightmove: 1 million iPhone downloads; 100k iPad downloads

Congratulations to the team at Rightmove who, today, celebrate achieving 1 million iPhone application downloads and 100,000 iPad application downloads. Rightmove is one of the UK’s leading property aggregation sites and, for a long time, I’ve been a regular user whenever the topic of property has arisen.

My wife regularly sits back on the sofa with the Rightmove iPad app in her lap and flicks through the local area (“just in case we see something we might like”). She loves the app and particularly enjoys the way you can flip the photos of each property across the screen.

And a tip-o-the-hat to the team behind the iPhone app, 2ergo.

As for search volume? The Rightmove mobile platform (iPad, iPhone, mobile web) is now delivering 500,000 searches a day. Really impressive stuff.
