Another video in the “powered by Qt” series. This time with LastMinute.com, the UK’s leading online travel and leisure retailer.

The developer part is more interesting, sharing the love for Qt for its ease and simplicity of use.

David Slocombe, Head of Mobile at lastminute.com, introduces the Hotels app for Qt-powered Symbian phones. After showcasing the app, David explains that users were having difficulty using the lastminute.com website on a mobile browser. By delivering the app using Qt, they now offer a great mobile UX and have opened up new markets in the process. Matthew Gaunt, Developer at Future Platforms, then talks about using the Qt SDK. Among the many features of the technology Matthew praises, he notes that the Qt Mobility APIs enabled sophisticated mapping features to be added to the app with “relatively few lines of code”
