Posted by Rob Lewis on 2011-12-05 9:29:00 AM

Earlier today Waterloo's Enflick unvelied their newest product Touch - the industry's first mobile-centric interpersonal connectivity platform designed to support users' closest personal relationships.

Enflick knows a bit about this space - they are responsible for TextNow, the leading free and unlimited picture and text messaging application, and PingChat!, a free cross-platform instant messaging application.

Touch hopes to redefine online interpersonal connectivity with one "go-to" platform that can be easily downloaded onto mobile phones to facilitate real-time communications that are entirely seamless, intuitive and intimate, allowing users to keep in touch with their innermost circle of family and friends on-demand.

"We want to give people the power to instantly connect with their closest friends and family - whenever they want, right from their mobile phones - and to make that Experience unlike anything else that exists today," said Derek Ting, co-founder and CEO, Enflick. "With a design focused on emulating our real-world personal interactions, Touch takes online connectivity to an entirely new level, transforming the way that we can keep in touch with the relationships that are the most important to us."

Touch fills an emerging need for mobile connectivity solutions and is a natural technology evolution that leverages Enflick's extensive social networking expertise gained through its successful TextNow and PingChat! applications, which combined serve more than a billion impressions per month and enjoy over 21.5 million users worldwide.

Touch can be downloaded immediately at Touch.com. Existing PingChat! users will also be upgraded, establishing an initial customer base of millions of users on the Touch platform from day one.

Touch supports iOS devices, as well as Android and Blackberry.
