12 New and Interesting Mobile Startups

Startups pop up all over the place and disappear just as quickly. It’s hard to tell which ones will make anything that is worth paying attention to in the long run. But even those that don’t last long sometimes bring innovative and interesting stuff to the table. That’s why we’ve been eyeing some of the most recent mobile startups. We want to know what the future holds and we think these folks have some insight into that regardless of whether or not their businesses last over time.Here’s a look at 12 new and interesting mobile startups that are worth glancing twice at:

Textaurant. This is a genius little startup catering to people who are not interested in wasting their time anymore. It’s basically a company that connects restaurants to patrons to make it easier for both parties when there’s a line at the restaurant. You can go anywhere at all and you’ll be texted when your table is ready so you don’t have to just stand in line waiting for your little buzzer to let you know it’s okay to come in. This kind of technology could end up being used in any type of setting where waits are common which would be great for busy people today!

TaxiMagic. One of the other things that you might frequently find yourself waiting for is a cab. But not anymore if you start working with this startup company. It lets you easily book a cab from your mobile phone. But that’s not all; you can also keep track of your cab’s whereabouts in real time using your cell phone. This allows you to avoid waiting in the rain or missing your cab because you want to run into a store.

KanGoGift. This is a great mobile gift giving service that we’re likely to see a lot of in the years to come. Essentially, you choose a gift for someone (let’s say a dinner at her favorite restaurant) and pay for it through your mobile web account. Then the recipient gets a text message with the information. She can head to the restaurant, show the message to the cashier there and receive her gift with no-hassles. This is a great green way to give gifts in the modern world.

SoremiAlert.com. If you’ve ever been in an emergency then you know that it can sometimes be confusing to try to get in touch with the right people to help you through this emergency. This startup company aims to make it easier. They use your mobile phone to connect you to all of the important people in your life (your boss, your kids, even your nation’s embassy as needed) as well as to make sure the right people have any medical documents and emergency information that they need. This is one mobile service that could definitely make you feel safer!

Type n Walk. This one is just for iPhone users right now but it could be useful for other smartphones, too. It’s designed to make your mobile phone transparent so that you can use it while you’re walking. We’ve heard a lot of studies done that show that people are missing out on things happening around them because they’re texting or surfing the mobile web while they’re walking. This is a way to keep on using your phone without missing what’s right in front of you. Creative!

Zokem. Have you ever wished that you could have a personal assistant who would automatically update your social networking sites so that you didn’t have to keep up with it all of the time? That’s the goal of this startup company. Your mobile phone will ask you whether or not you want to update something and you just hit yes or no. For example, when your plane lands at a destination, your phone will ask, “do you want me to publish that information?” You receive the reminder, make a quick decision and go about your day. Nice and simple.

iSites.us. This startup company provides an easy way for you to create your own apps for Android or iPhone use. It allows you to combine your RSS feed and your social networking accounts into a dynamic application that others can use. Then it submits the app for you to the appropriate app store. This level of customization is definitely what people want with mobile phones today.

Opiniator. This startup company provides a service that is designed to help other businesses specifically those in the restaurant and hospitality industries. It allows customers to use their own mobile phones to provide instantaneous feedback to the businesses. This tells you how your customers are feeling when receiving your services, information that can be invaluable to improving your business and improving your bottom line. Mobile phones are increasingly used to change the way that business is being done and this is just one more way of taking that another step further.

AdMarvel. This startup company is one of many that are hitting the ground running to make as much of an impact on mobile marketing as possible. In many ways, mobile advertising is still in the early stages. This company aims to make it easy for people like you to advertise on mobile phones.

Movylo Shop. Why make money advertising on mobile phones when you can set up your own m-commerce store and start to sell products for cash immediately?
