If you're frequently online using multiple social networks, you may feel overwhelmed at times when looking at main feeds, especially if you're following numerous sources. Luckily, there are some services out there that enable you to group, filter and manage your social accounts. One of said services is iSwarm (www.iswarm.com), which has just launched on Windows Phone 8.
Whether you're a business executive or a social media savvy consumer, iSwarm is worth checking out. Developed and released by Ceiba Solutions, the Windows Phone app taps into the company's cloud-based iSwarm monitoring platform. As touched on above, the service enables you to track, manage and follow more streamlined feeds from the social universe.
Utilising watchlists, iSwarm lets you focus on the important and relevant topics, cutting out all the in-between and general chatter. These watchlists can be configured on the fly, across multiple social channels (including app stores) to provide you with a less manic social experience. Here's what Warren Casey, CEO at Ceiba Solutions, had to comment on the announcement:
"Social media has become a part of people’s lives in ways that were unimaginable just a few years ago. Following the things that interest us in work and play is part of the modern lifestyle. The iSwarm Windows Phone 8 app is designed to give enthusiasts from the corporate executive to the aspiring student a shortcut to discover conversations that have real meaning."
Social networks supported by iSwarm include Twitter, Facebook, Google+ and YouTube, but there are also RSS feeds and application reviews pulled from both the iTunes and Google Play stores. It's entirely customisable to your personal (or professional) requirements, making it easier to remain in the loop with important social media conversations and trending topics.
The app is a simple solution with an intuitive user interface. While there's not a whole lot of functionality included, it further enables you to skip clutter and useless steps to get stuck into social media content - exactly what you'd want with such an app installed on your Windows Phone. Should you require a little help with your social profiles, give iSwarm a shot.
You can download iSwarm from the Windows Phone Store (requires Windows Phone 8).
