When we first launched our iPhone app in September 2008, we were excited to give consumers a new way to find homes to buy or rent while on the go. And throughout the years, we made many updates, incorporated new features, and expanded our mobile suite. We’ve gone from one iPhone app–simply dedicated to finding a home–to six different iOS apps for renters, agents, iPad owners, and two more strictly devoted to our mortgage tools. Today, we’re excited to announce that our original iPhone app has received a major overhaul.
Trulia Real Estate — Homes for Sale & Apartments for Rent was updated with our users in mind. We conducted in-person user research, then studied our other apps to identify the features that consumers engaged with most. From there, we incorporated the best of the best for a more intuitive, user friendly, beautiful iOS app.
The navigation has been completely updated with a Facebook-style menu that includes quick links to popular areas like homes for sale, homes for rent, open houses, my saves, and more.
The new features include:
? Color-coded markers to easily distinguish the newest properties on the market: Black represents new, unviewed homes, while a grey marker denotes that users have already seen a property.
Map view image? School and amenity markers—which were previously only visible on property pages—are displayed right on the map results page, giving users more inside scoop upfront. This new feature can be utilized in both satellite and hybrid view.
Check out the nearby amenities? Updated property pages which allow users to get the inside scoop on median prices and school ratings for any city.
