Crackle App Launches in Latin America & Brazil

MIAMI: Crackle’s new free app is now available in Latin America and Brazil for the iPhone, iPad, iPod touch and all Android mobile devices.

Crackle App is the first app to feature ad-supported full-length, unedited Hollywood movies, TV shows and original content. Titles will be offered in English with the option of being dubbed or subtitled in Spanish and Portuguese.

The app includes several features, such as free on-demand viewing of Crackle’s films and television series and the ability to pause and resume playback. Some of the movies being offered include Talladega Nights, Ghostbusters and Fun with Dick and Jane, to name a few. TV shows include Bewitched and I Dream of Genie, among others.

Ford and Nextel Evolutions have been named exclusive sponsors of the app in Brazil and Mexico, respectively.

"Consumers want the same unique high-quality viewing experience that they’ve come to love at Crackle, directly on their mobile devices," said Jose Rivera Font, the VP and general manager of Crackle for Latin America and Brazil. "With the expansion of this new app onto even more platforms, iPhone, iPad and iPod touch and Android mobile users across the region now have access to un-cut feature films and television series on the go."

"There’s a universal demand among advertisers in Latin America for more ways to connect with consumers through content," added Irving Plonskier, SPT’s senior VP and general manager of ad sales for Latin America. "Crackle offers a uniquely premium ad-supported multiplatform opportunity that enables advertisers to reach and deeply engage targeted audiences, which can’t be found anywhere else in the region."
