Huddersfield Town ‘Town Square’ mobile app scores over 4,000

Since launching only two weeks age, the Huddersfield Town’s new official app has been downloaded over 4,000 times.

The new app, called Town Square, constantly updates supporters with the club’s latest news, including line-ups, stats, scores throughout the league, twitter and Town’s retail offerings.

Designed by Holmfirth-based brand, websites and marketing agency Worthington Brown, the app will also contain innovative technology from TribeHive.

This technology allows users to access the internet by providing an alternative connection to Wi-Fi, which would otherwise be expensive to provide in such big venues. Fans that have downloaded the app will be able to share the bandwidth with other mobiles with the app.

Huddersfield Town’s Commercial Director Sean Jarvis, said: “The Club is very pleased with how ‘Town Square’ has performed and how many times it has been downloaded since its launch a fortnight ago.

“The support from Huddersfield Town fans has been fantastic; we’ve received lots of feedback over several different mediums on how it has improved their match day experience and also proved useful on non-match days.

“In particular, the push notifications we’ve sent via the app – to promote Dean Hoyle’s Q&A session with supporters and breaking team news.

“We’re now comfortable with how the first stage of the app is working and we’re working on several improvements that we can roll out to improve Town Square even further in the second phase. That will include the introduction of iBeacons, a technology that will allow us to use the app to promote special offers and competitions.”

The app is available to download from the App Store for Apple devices and Play Store for Android users.
