MyRegistry.com Launches Revolutionary iPhone App

FORT LEE, N.J., April 29 /PRNewswire/ -- MyRegistry.com, the leader in online gift registry technology, today announced the release of a new iPhone app that offers an entirely new method of building a gift registry. The MyRegistry.com Universal Wishlist with Barcode Scanner iPhone App, the first of its kind, employs barcode scanning technology to allow users to easily add any item imaginable to their gift registries or wishlists with a single zap of their iPhones.

The groundbreaking app will provide an extension of MyRegistry.com's current services by giving users the added capability of adding any item onto one universal gift registry while away from their computers. By offering the unprecedented ability for consumers to scan and add items directly to their registries with an iPhone, MyRegistry.com has given members the option of participating in the traditional in-store registry experience while enjoying the freedom of selecting any item with a product barcode.

"We have taken our philosophy of All Stores, One Registry(R) even further by effectively turning the world into a department store," said Oded Berkowitz, Founder and CEO of MyRegistry.com. "Users of our iPhone app will now be able to instantly add items they like to their gift registries as they come across them, without ever even logging onto a computer. This app truly offers an entirely new approach to registering for a big event or any other gift-giving occasion throughout the year."

In addition to providing the convenient ability to scan and add items to one universal registry or wishlist, this service enhancement incorporating mobile technology will also allow MyRegistry members and guests to access many of the registry tools already available online at MyRegistry.com. Users of the MyRegistry.com Universal Wishlist with Barcode Scanner App will be able to:

• Scan any barcode to easily register for items
• Compare prices before adding new registry items
• Manage their own registry items and view guest purchases
• Send customizable eCards
• Give and receive cash gifts
• View any member's registry and purchase gifts for others
