Functional Search for Apps Speakers: There are Millions of Apps out there but App Discovery is broken. Two-thirds of apps in an App Store have never been downloaded. Without knowing the name of the app, it’s almost impossible to find the right one without reading endless marketing pages. Just like automated Search replaced the humanly curated directories of the early web – Search can solve the dilemma of discovery in the apps domain. Unfortunately you simply cannot take traditional search engines optimized for key words on Web pages and apply these to apps. Quixey has had to create a new type of search technology from the ground up. Quixey invented Functional Search and applied this to apps. Users don’t have to remember the names of apps or keywords associated with these apps. Users simply express their intent with natural language and the Quixey Search Engine will serve you the most relevant results! |
