The U2 Mobile Album is now out on App World as a free download. The application lets you follow the No Line On The Horizon tour and features songs, video and news about the band.
Some other features you’ll find include:
Get inside the album with access to songs from No Line On The Horizon, essays from the band, and video clips
View the original, origami-style photo displays inspired by the music
Access dynamic news feeds from U2.com and receive alerts when new content is available
View exclusive images of the band in the recording studio and on the road
Mark your place in the crowd with geocoding, chat and share images with other fans, and view postings from the band (coming soon!)
Tap into the Who’s Listening section and see when and where other users are listening to the album (coming soon!)
Track the tour as the band moves across the globe – see where they’re going and where they’ve been (coming soon!)
The app is decent but when it comes to listening to music, they don’t give you much. The preview is very short and purchasing is a tedious process. Purchasing songs is done through the U2 Mobile Shop, rather than PayPal, which seems really strange considering there is already a payment mechanism in place.
Check out the U2 Mobile Album available in App World.
