The YellowPages.ca(TM) App includes the following features:

- Save to your favourites (My Favs) and/or address book

- Share listing results with others via email/sms

"Our YellowPages.ca(TM) App remains in the top-200 free downloaded apps since launching at the iTunes App Store," added Marceau. "It leverages the power of our national database and the location-based/GPS functionality of today's smartphones to provide local, relevant results to consumers. We have seen significant growth in the number of YellowPages.ca mobile page views and we believe the enhancements made to the App will continue to help us connect advertisers with their potential buyers."
