LONDON, November 22, 2010 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Hellotxt (http://hellotxt.com), the simple and fun social dashboard - within mobile entertainment leader Buongiorno's new business line - that makes it easy to read and post to separate accounts on the social web, today announced a new release of its iPhone and iPad application, offering multilingual support.

Over 62% of Hellotxt users are now outside of the U.S., and many live in countries where English is not the primary language. To address the needs of an increasingly diverse user base, the Hellotxt team included new language translations in iPhone and iPad version 2.3 (available now via iTunes) (http://itunes.apple.com/app/hellotxt/id366956386?mt=8) supporting: Italian (24% Hellotxt EU5 users), Spanish (21% Hellotxt EU5 users), French (12% Hellotxt EU5 users), Portuguese - which over 260 million speakers use in the southern hemisphere. Additionally, Dutch users of Hellotxt - a language spoken by over 22 million people as a native language, and by over 5 million people as a second language - have doubled in the last 10 months!

"Hellotxt has always been a popular social tool over the world, thanks to a simple user interface that immediately makes sense regardless of your spoken language" said Tom Warren, Head of Hellotxt. "Now, with the translations in release 2.3 for iPhone/iPad, we hope to bring a deeper understanding of updated features...like a Smart Reading Feed and Geo-Location Posting...to a larger global audience, as well as cater to our non-English speaking markets showing real growth."

Hellotxt new version 2.3 also includes the brand new features: Smart Reading Feed and Doodle Your Facebook Friend:

    - Smart Reading Feed - Users can Comment, "Like," and Retweet
      (Facebook and Twitter respectively) within one consolidated reading
      view.

    - Doodle Your Facebook Friend - Users can Challenge Facebook
      friends to a game of creativity by adding clip art and your own
      freehand drawings to profile pics before posting to their Wall! The
      person challenged does not need the app to respond via their own
      Doodle!

Hellotxt for iPhone/iPad 2.3 is now available at http://hellotxt.com/dashboard/mobile and on AppStore.
