Koprol today launched its new front page in a move to internationalize its appeal and kick start its long-awaited redesign to simplify and clean up its interface. Following a design cue that began with the touch-oriented mobile site, the overall look was carried over to the larger site and today, we see that it has been brought over to the upcoming yet unannounced application shown on the PlayBook.
Koprol’s Satya Witoelar and Aryo Kresnadi both posted different photos to their respective Koprol accounts showing what the new app looks like. As neither have yet to respond to queries about the photos, it’s unclear whether the app is a web app meant for tablets in general or if it’s a specific application for the PlayBook. From that single front-on shot, it looks more like a web application instead of a native app but we’ll find out if or when they let us know.
We’d also like to know what’s going on with the long-awaited iPhone app. Late last year we were informed that the iPhone app was in concurrent development with the Android app but apparently that has changed and is now scheduled to be released after the Android app. We’re also hearing that its development had been handed over to Singapore, whether it’s Yahoo!’s developers in Singapore or an external developer, we’ve yet to find out.
