GET BETTER DEALS AND HAVE MORE “BACK TO SCHOOL,” BARGAIN HUNTING FUN WITH MY SHOPPING CIRCLE™ FROM ICONOSYS

Share your shopping experience with your friends! As you find great deals, post them to your Facebook wall and manage your "girlfriend group" by sharing them in real time, all at once!

Laguna Niguel, CA, July 26, 2011 - Iconosys, Inc., developer of nearly 600 life-style, gaming, and safety enhancing mobile apps for the Smartphone like DriveReply™, which helps curb distracted driving, has now created My Shopping Circle™ so that shoppers can take advantage of social shopping, even when physically separated from their shopping buddies.

"I find bargains daily, and then I call my closest girlfriends to share. I find that even days later I am still talking about it later to people I wish I would have thought to notify when I first saw the special deal," said Lauren Irving, experienced shopper and wife of Iconosys CEO and Founder, Wayne Irving II. “With this app, I can tell everyone in my shoppers’ circle about a great deal all at once and even use GPS to help them find it.”

Perfect for our technologically advanced, but time sensitive, consumer marketplace, Iconosys now unveils a smartphone app that enables shoppers and bargain hunters to know the exact whereabouts of those special deals within a certain radius and, most importantly, in real time. My Shopping Circle serves the needs of savvy shoppers by helping them maintain communication with Facebook friends and “Shopping Circle” team members, while at the same time providing a comprehensive and GPS-enhanced mapping of where the particular shopping deals are located within a pre-set perimeter.  In other words, you can see what your girlfriends are purchasing/posting in real-time and without the need of a phone call.

Features Include:

• My Shopping Circle can help locate, track, and share the hottest bargains within a certain radius with a touch of a single button on the user's Smartphone for route planning and comparison shopping;
• Teams, or Shopping Circles, can collaborate on a GPS-enabled, real-time bulletin board to share locations and deals that their friends may miss;
• Facebook friends are integrated into the application, so the users, if they wish, can share exceptional deals in real-time and with a potentially global reach;
• A "Hey Girlfriend" deal scroller scrolls found bargains within the desired radius and allows posting of these deals to Facebook for sharing within the user’s social network;
• Users can click on a map to locate Shopping Circle friends for “real  time” social shopping, and to see the exact location of the bargains they are gushing about
• The My Shopping Circle app stores the historical posts from the Shopping Circle and/or Facebook friends, and allows users to easily store, organize, search through and/or retrieve those posts for future reference and to keep track of specific items and bargains;
• My Shopping Circle is available in English on Android OS phones, and is planned to be released on iPhone in November, just in time for Black Friday.  An Android OS Spanish version is in the works for mid-August on the Motorola Shop4Apps App Store for Mexico & Argentina.

"The bottom line is that people love to share deals and bargains, especially to help each other save money, and share those unique finds they know their friends would die for. We can use social networking and smartphone technology to extend our social sharing and keep our Shopping Circle clued in on the scoops for hot clearance items, those hard to find deals, one day or just hour-long specials, or even what we buy on the spur of the moment with," added Mrs. Irving.

Pricing and Availability:

My Shopping Circle is available for free in an ad-supported version, and for $1.49 in a banner ad-free version from the Android Market or http://iconosys.com/productlist.php?id=262.
