“We were looking for a specialized partner who enables us to develop our app with speed and flexibility, so we can better serve the Eurovision fans across the globe,“ says Dave Goodman, ESC Digital and Communications Manager for Contest organizers, the European Broadcasting Union.

“We definitely got all of that in Choicely, and more,” Goodman emphasizes.

With Choicely, the app can be built without coding, using a visual drag and drop interface instead – like Wix or Wordpress for mobile apps.

“Despite Choicely being a no code platform, we got a fully tailormade app that matches our needs and our brand. Making improvements is quick and easy. We can focus on engaging our fans!” adds Dave Goodman from the EBU.

The Eurovision app boasts an extensive news feed and media portal, and engagement tools full of interactive fan activations like the Scoreboard. With it, viewers can establish their own classic Eurovision ranking from 12 points on, and share the ranking on social media.

During the Semi-Finals and Grand Final, viewers around the world can also easily vote through the app.

“We are proud to co-operate with the Eurovision Song Contest!” says Kaius Meskanen, CEO of Choicely. “It’s a legendary contest with a passionate global fanbase, and it reflects in everything they do,” Meskanen says.

“Together we have created a pixel-perfect app to serve the Eurovision fans, during the shows and in between them. It’s great to see the ESC organization enjoying the benefits of no code, like lower development costs, agile updates, and a better overall experience for the fans,” Meskanen points out.

Choicely was founded in Finland and it’s used by leaders in media, sports and entertainment companies, and across a range of industries in over 50 countries.

The renewed Eurovision Song Contest app can be found in Apple App Store and Google Play Store.
