For years there are none, then suddenly they are like London buses… Cannes apps. Some produced on a stroke of genius, others because some crafty capitalist publishers feel they can make a Euro or two off you.
Gutter Barometer
“You didn’t miss it but it’s back anyway” The Gutter Barometer first reared its drunken head last year. Updated from 2010 with added Carlton Terrace as well as the Cannt bar in London, the original was inspired by the legendary 72 Croisette watering hole.
The app tracks your GPS location and you creep up the Gutter Barometer by spending the most time at either the Gutterbar, on the Carlton Terrace or in London at the Cannt Bar. Just download the app and sign in with Twitter. Done. This pointless marvel is the brainchild of Creative Social and Dare.

Take Me I'm Yours
Getting right down to the heart of the matter – helping friends get laid – is a spanking new tool developed for the Cannes' lonely: Take Me I'm Yours.
TMIY - the app that says what you really mean. It’s in its infancy so the more people to use this, the more people will get laid.

Instacannes
You work it out – I know it’s cool but I dunno what to do with it. It's an evolving snapshot of the Festival with continually updated Instagram images of the goings on at this week's extravaganza. Enjoy the fun from afar. Another Creative Social production with thanks to the efforts of developer Syd Lawrence.

Campaign app
You’d have thought the UK industry ad bible would have done this years ago, but better late than never, the free mobile app supports its presence at the Festival and promises to be the hub for all future Campaign content. For the festival the app serves as an interactive, real-time pocket guide to all the usual (and unusual) goings on. Built by Propeller Mobile.
