Tawkon Mobile Radiation Tracking App Goes "Retro"

Online, January 30, 2013 (Newswire.com) - Since its inception, tawkon (www.tawkon.com) has been on a evolutionary journey. The app has gone through several iterations in terms of user experience, with a complete overhaul and relaunch of its app in April of 2012. Now tawkon has taken the next evolutionary step in protecting users from mobile radiation.

Enter the tawkon retro handset (www.tawkon.com/retro).

The tawkon retro handsets are stylish, comfortable and eliminate 99% of absorbed radiation, making them a perfect add on for the tawkon application. These handsets are seamlessly integrated with the tawkon application to enhance the overall user experience.

tawkon's team, with its expertise in the field, tested and certified that the retro handsets effectively protect against radiation.

tawkon analyzed over 100,000,000 calls to date. From this data they found that nearly 80% of calls were being made from indoors, ie from the home or office.

The fact is, traditional "landlines" are becoming a thing of the past. Now that phone calls from the home and office are being made almost exclusively using mobile phones, there is a need for a comfortable and mobile radiation safe solution for people who use powered smartphones indoors.

Now all smartphone users can have an easy to use accessory around them at all times that will provide protection from mobile phone radiation. Along with the tawkon application, the tawkon retro handset gives smartphone users the ease of mind to keep talking, as much as they want, worry free.

The tawkon retro handsets are available as both an in app purchase (there is a 20% discount for app users), as well as through the tawkon retro handset website.

The tawkon branded handset was the brainchild of Co-Founders Gil Friedlander, Ori Goshen and Amit Lubovksy "It started as a lark; something we brought to conferences and events as a conversation starter. We found that it became wildly popular and people started asking us when they could get their own." Says Gil Friedlander, Co-Founder and CEO of tawkon.

The tawkon retro handsets have been made available in conjunction with the release of the new version of the tawkon Anrdoid application. The app is now more social than ever, making it even easier to protect your family and friends by sharing exposure and usage statistics, as well as share how much radiation you have avoided with your Facebook friends.

Now when the app alerts users about a spike in radiation they can simply grab their retro handset and plug it in. Once plugged in, tawkon will recognize that a handset is connected and will indicate to the user that they are now avoiding radiation exposure.
