As for the update, the press release is as follows:
Leading travel search company Skyscanner announces the release of a new version of its top-ranking Windows Phone app featuring improved functionality for users with the addition of the most flexible browse function available in flight search.
The application is available for Windows Phone 7.5 or higher and, as with all of Skyscanner’s apps, is free to download. The new app continues to make the best use of the Live Tile function of Windows Phones, allowing users to pin selected flights to the Start screen and then track them automatically.
Highlights of the new app include:
• Flexible date function showing users flight prices each day across a whole month, or even year, making it possible to find the lowest fares
• The ‘Everywhere’ function, which allows users to search for the cheapest flights without entering specific destinations
Bonamy Grimes, Co-founder and Director of Mobile at Skyscanner said:
“We launched our first app for Windows Phone late last year and it has been very well received. But we’re always trying to improve overall user experience, and it’s a testament to our mobile development team that we’ve managed to surpass even our own expectations of version 1.4 in such a short space of time.
We’re confident that we’ve built an app that is well ahead of the pack in travel search on Windows Phone, something that we’ve had backed up by user testing so far. Overall, our aim is to save people time and money and the improved flexibility in browsing makes this much easier.”

AppFlow Update Adds International Marketplaces Support
AppFlow – the most pouplar third party WP7 Marketplace browser – has just gotten a great deal better. Until now, all the apps in the lists – e.g. in New & Impressive, Forgotten Legends, Highest Rated – were specific to rankings and popularity in the US Marketplace. The AppFlow team has had lots of feedback from people outside of the US asking for this to be changed – and so they did. The latest update now supports all 36 Marketplacess, meaning you’ll see and be able to discover even more relevant apps – regardless of which Marketplace region you are in.
The update means that almost all lists are different for each Marketplace and show apps relevant and popular in that region. App rating charts and app statistics are also region specific and app descriptions are shown in the selected language if the app supports it. Switching between Marketplace regions can be done within the app so the update makes it pretty easy to discover what’s trending on the different Marketplaces.
