EMOTE Your VOTE: iPhone App Uses Emojis & Digital Stickers to Support Presidential Candidates

Monday, October 10, 2016

Users match emotive faces of the candidate with taglines edited from their statements and tweets to create a colorful, powerful post. The custom stickers are ready to be posted and shared via iMessage, Facebook/Messenger, Instagram and other major messaging apps, as well as saved to the camera roll. The sticker faces and taglines are updated for each debate and for key events that might affect the outcome, so there are always new ways to promote your candidate right up to election day. The app aims to entice younger users to vote using already familiar social media platforms. The first version just released in the Apple iPhone app store in time for the presidential debates also links to direct ways to register to vote.
