MobiTubia released for Public!

I am proud to announce Sittiphol’s great YouTube client available for everybody: “MobiTubia” has finally been made available for public.

You can download this great application on Sittiphol’s completely redesigned “MobiTubia” page.

Sittiphol worked really hard on his client winning Nokia Open C Contest and improved it massivly.

There is nearly no video lagging anymore and I worked hard with him to remove most of the bugs. The result is a smoothly working YouTube client with the best UI ever seen in an application.

We’ll see, whether mobile users will venture the step to leave the also great working application “emTube” behind. I am using “MobiTubia” everyday instead of “emTube” because I simply love the great UI.
