Some of the features include personalised notifications for the latest deals and vouchers and great offline experience. The offline experience would mean that in case of slow internet connection, you can also search offline. However, the offline experience is presently available only in the airlines segment. VIA would extend this feature to the hotels, holidays and bus segment in the next three months.
According to Varun Gupta, CTO, Via.com, the lite version is primarily for consumers using slower internet connections. “With powerful features like push notifications, offline access, add-to-home screen, fast page load and a smooth user interface, the main message is that you don’t need to choose between web or app. We are providing users with a frictionless and highly engaging experience on the mobile web.”
Via.com launched its mobile app last year and has launched many innovative features, including fare calendar, various payment gateways, etc since then.
