Wow. This seems like an incredible iteration on mobile ad tech. How responsive (as in from a UX standpoint) are the trials?

Super responsive. :)

It's a streaming tech, but we can target on the ad network level (wifi/4g/3g/etc). We only run ads on devices where we know they'll have a great user experience, since we hate crappy ads as well!

With a bit of effort one can even exit the application: http://a.pomf.se/jevryz.png

I'm honestly surprised by how well it does run, and even more by how well it run on my mobile. Congratulations :)

It really isn't that hard: https://www.dropbox.com/s/wthf8hdgk6knmjl/Screenshot%202014-...

Anyway, this seems like a really awesome concept! I, for one, would be much more interested in downloading an app if I could test it out first.
