Introducing Event Finder App for Windows Phone
My Windows Phone App – Event Finder App – just got published last week and is available now in the Marketplace!
If you are in New Zealand, you can use the app to browse local events in your region from the Event Finder web site – https://www.eventfinder.co.nz
For the rest of the world, the app should still work. So if you are planning to visit New Zealand, make sure you have the app to find what’s going on!
Home Screen
Below is the screenshot of the home screen:
The home screen lists events that are featured, events happening today, tomorrow and this weekend
The events are categorised by Category which is available as Jump List.
[If you don’t know what a Jump List is, just click on the Category, which in the above screen shot would be ‘Comedy’.]
You can also tap and hold on an event to reveal the context menu – where you can add the event to your Wishlist or create Reminders or share the event via email (See Full Version for more details)
Below is the event page showing the event information:
The event page gives you information about the event schedule, ticketing, location and small blurb about the event. For the full information about the event, you can browse the event web site from the ‘Tap here for event website’

Trial Version
With the trial version you are able to browse and search events from your current region. You cannot change or choose your current location. You can still get event information from the event page. Below is a screenshot of the home screen in the trial version:
