India’s highest rated news app has achieved yet another feat by being recognized as the ‘Best Innovative Mobile App’ in India by Internet And Mobile Association of India (IAMAI) at the recently held 6th India Digital Awards in New Delhi. More than 500 Internet, mobile and digital marketing companies participated in this year’s India Digital Awards.
Inshorts app was launched in November 2014 by the trio of IITians – Azhar Iqubal, Anunay Arunav and Deepit Purkayastha. The app summarizes news stories into 60 words letting you to know the crux of the news without reading through the entire piece. The stories are carefully selected into important categories like national, politics, sports, international, business and entertainment by an efficient editorial team, to ensure readers do not miss anything important and significant to know. It also allows readers to scan through their preferred section and pick the story of their choice to read. Needless to say, the synopsis offers a link leading to the entire story if desired.
Celebrating the proud moment, Azhar Iqubal, Co-Founder & CEO, Inshorts said, “We are delighted to have won this prestigious IAMAI award. Our focus has been on providing a holistic experience in relevant news reading and sharing. The award will surely strengthen our endeavour to better the experience of the users and create a more engaging environment for our patrons.”
The 10th India Digital Summit was held on 9th and 10th February 2016. Organized by the Internet and Mobile Association of India (IAMAI), the summit is the largest annual gathering of the digital industry in India where stakeholders meet to discuss measures and solutions to the challenges.
