Catching up on last week’s news again, this time with QVC’s announcement that plan to launch apps for Android and BlackBerry smartphones, as well as unveil an enhanced version of its QVC iPhone App. These services are expected to be offered in the coming weeks.
New highlights of the apps for Android, BlackBerry and iPhone include the ability to view customer ratings and reviews and filter search results by category.
The Android and iPhone apps will also provide the users of these devices with access to a full 16:9 HD feed of QVC’s live broadcast.
“The QVC shopping experience has evolved over the years based on an open, continuous dialogue we’ve shared with our customers,” Angie Simmons, QVC’s executive vice president of multichannel platforms, said in a canned statement. “We’re thrilled to provide them with even more options to access our product offerings and to stay engaged with our shopping community – no matter where they are or what they are doing.”
With the QVC apps for Android, BlackBerry and iPhone smartphones, users of these devices will also be able to access QVC’s Today’s Special Value and One Time Only Value.
Now can someone tell us what an Android is in this context? We assume we’re not talking about a little robot, like in sci fi movies. We know, we’re Luddites.

Great eye opener. Would be good to see a full Android and iPhone apps merge one day so apps are universal on both the Android and iPhone. Regards.
