Kyght releases McRun

Kyght releases McRun for Android
...

Coffee Time!!! Where too? McDonald!! its time to enjoy one of McDonald's McCafe brand of beverages. Now... you can't go for a coffee without offering to get one for your co-workers, friends or family. Everyone likes their coffee, tea or whatever a certain way, better go find a pen and paper and write it all down. Now, this is becoming a real chore, and your going to be doing the same thing tomorrow, the day after, and the day after that... :(

Maybe next time I will not bother... but you will, you love coffee! you can't go without it!!!
(If only this was easier)

With "McRun" its simple, you alway have your phone with you. Add people to your list once and the next time you have to go on a "McRun", simply press who is "IN" and press "LOCK" to only show people getting something. During order time, just press the persons name to see the details of their order flash up.
  • Bob - Large 2 cream & 2 sugar
  • Jane - Medium 1 milk & 2 sweetener
  • Dave - Small Decalf
  • Lisa - Large 1 milk & 2 sugar

McRun's dropdown lists have been customized to McDonald's McCafe beverages offered at most locations worldwide.
(For those annoying people who don't know what to get and wants to know whats available ;@)

Kyght release Tim's Run

Kyght has released Tim's Run for Android.
...

There's nothing like a Tim Hortons coffee, we love it, crave it, NEED IT!!! So when you decide to leave and go get one, everyone around you wants one too. A "Tim's Run" is born, you better go find a pen and paper and write down everyone's order. (Make sure you don't lose it on your way to Timmy's)

Fun thing, it's always the same people who want Timmy's and they always want the same thing.
(Hope you remembered how each friend likes their drink)

  • Bob - Large 2 cream & 2 sugar
  • Jane - Medium 1 milk & 2 sweetener
  • Dave - Small Decalf
  • Lisa - Large 1 milk & 2 sugar

Now you can download the "Tim's Run" app. Enter everyone's drink type once and you got it. The next time there is a Tim's Run, simply select who is "IN" and press "LOCK". During order time, just press the persons name to see the details of their order flash up.

Tim's Run dropdown lists have been customized to Tim Hortons beverages offered at most locations in Canada and the US.
(For those annoying people who don't know what to get and wants to know whats available ;@)

Kyght targets Android

Most smart phone devices are running Android OS and the numbers are climbing.

While some people may be favoring iOS on iPhone, the audience is not growing and Apple's lock down of thier OS, AppStore, and development platform are taking their toll.  Given Apple's history they are unlikely to change their policy.

Google on the other hand already has a massive audience and growing based of cloud applications.  Android OS already runs on mobile phones and tablets... and our TV's are next.  Google will be able to sync all devices via their cloud applications.
