Jersey Shore Party App is Now Available for iPhone and iPod Touch Users

NEW YORK, NY — January, 11, 2010 — The controversy over the recent portrayals of the Jersey Shore party scene hasn’t discouraged a group of digital strategists and developers from capitalizing on the growing popularity of the Garden State’s coastal culture. The Jersey Shore Party App from Tingalin Apps lets iPhone and iPod Touch users get a taste of this rising trend.

The Jersey Shore Party App allows users to prepare for Jersey Shore nightlife with a nickname generator for men and women, hundreds of pickup lines, a club-ready glow stick and a fist pump challenge tool. Fist pumping is a dance move that consists of making a fist and pumping it into the air to the beat of the music. Using the Jersey Shore Party App, users can fist-pump to any song and track all kinds of statistics, including the number of calories burned. “The fist pump tools use the device’s built in accelerometer to track the fist pumping data,” says Tingalin’s lead developer Afrim Kacaj. “We expect the Fist-Pump Challenge and the Glow Stick to be the most popular feature of our app.”

The developers are planning interactive social tools and mini-games for future versions. An upcoming update, which is currently awaiting Apple’s approval, will contain a feature that will allow users to “Catch a Fake Tan”. While acknowledging that this feature is a harmless spoof, the developers are hoping to use it to raise awareness to the links between tanning beds and skin cancer. According to the International Agency for Research on Cancer, using a tanning bed before the age of 30 increases your risk of developing skin cancer by 75 percent.

To download the Jersey Shore Party App, iPhone and iPod Touch users can simply search “Jersey Shore Party App” on iTunes.
