Exa builds Eggsellent App for Farm Pride

18 April 2011. Exa, Australia’s largest Web Solutions Company, has developed an Egg Timer iPhone application for Farm Pride to help cooks take the guess work out of boiling eggs. Available for free from the Apple iTunes Store, the Farm Pride Egg Timer app provides users with a step-by-step guide for boiling large, extra-large and jumbo eggs.

The app features an automatic timer for each egg size and sounds an alarm when the eggs are ready. Users can choose from soft-boiled, medium-boiled or hard-boiled options and are prompted by pop-up instructions prior to cooking.

Over the past few months, Exa has designed, developed and tested the Egg Timer app, working alongside Farm Pride to create something that appealed to their market. Exa’s managing director, Peter Ball, said people of all ages can benefit from the handy application.

“It’s something everyone can use in the kitchen, no matter how old you are” Ball said.

“With pop-up instructions and recipes at the touch of a button, you don’t need to think about how you’re going to cook your eggs. It’s a fun, useful application”.

There are now more than 400,000 apps available from the Apple iTunes Store with that number sure to rise over the coming year.

Farm Pride general manager Zelko Lendich thanked Exa and the team of application developers for their hard work during the development process.

“We’re thrilled with the application and the feedback we’re getting from users is great.”
