Как и на прошлых Олимпийских играх, Samsung обеспечивает пользователей мобильных устройств оперативной и максимально подробной информацией о происходящем на спортивных аренах, а также за их пределами, например, в Олимпийской деревне.
Приложение PyeongChang 2018 создано по принципу "всё-в-одном", поэтому, помимо обширного потока новостей о соревнованиях сильнейших атлетов мира, пользователь получает любую другую информацию, так или иначе связанную с Олимпиадой. Узнать о наличии билетов в кассах стадионов, забронировать номер в ближайшем отоле, узнать о лучших ресторанах, закусочных и местных достопримечательностях - всё это будет доступно гостям южнокорейского Пхёнчхана в полном объёме с помощью нескольких кликов на смартфоне или планшете.
Отметим также, что впервые в мире Samsung запустит коммерческую сеть ультраскоростной мобильной связи 5-го поколения (5G), чтобы обеспечить участников и гостей Игр самыми быстрыми коммуникациями, какие только возможны на сегодняшний день. Воспользоваться преимуществами 5G смогут обладатели последних флагманских моделей Samsung Galaxy S8/S8+ и Galaxy Note 8, которые южнокорейский гигант уже оснастил специальными модемами, поддерживающими новые протоколы связи.
Официальное приложение PyeongChang 2018 доступно на английском, корейском, французском, японском и китайском языках и может быть бесплатно загружено в Google Apps, Google Play Store и в магазине приложений для iOS.
