SAN FRANCISCO & LONDON --(Business Wire)-- Jan 15, 2010 Flirtomatic (http://www.flirtomatic.com), one of the most popular social mobile services used by young adults, makes flirting easier and more fun than ever with the release of Flirtomatic for the iPhone. Available for free at the Apple iTunes Store, the award-winning service is now available to all iPhone and iPod Touch users to meet, flirt, and have fun online.

“Customers have told us they want to flirt everywhere and anywhere,” said Mark Curtis, CEO of Flirtomatic. “We already have a web presence and partnerships with major carriers around the world. Now we are taking flirting to the world’s most talked-about smart phone. We’re excited about the application and hope that customers can go global with their flirting.”

Once downloaded, the Flirtomatic iPhone application allows users to take all of 20 seconds to set up a profile and start chatting. Users can also:

* Search over 1.8 million hot profiles. Find people who live nearby and search by gender, age, interests, and flirting preference.
* Chat Live – Fire off messages for free, or send a virtual gift, kiss, wink or supersnog to start a conversation. Users can also send a “flirtbomb” to hit many flirts in one go – and watch the responses come in.
* Buy their own user-generated advertising in the Look At Me section, where they bid in real-time auctions, 24 hours a day, to get more attention than any rivals.
* Browse the top-rated gallery to find the most popular, the most snogged, and the most generous people on Flirtomatic. Check out full profiles and photos or create your own.
* Tons of extras – Rate your favorites, find out who’s rated you, see who’s checked you out, see who’s online right now, delete freak ratings, and much more.
