Phunware Receives Notice of Allowance for United States Patent Covering Enterprise Branded Application Frameworks for Mobile and Other Environments

AUSTIN, Texas–(BUSINESS WIRE)–$PHUN #PHUNPhunware, Inc. (NASDAQ: PHUN) (the “Company”), a fully-integrated enterprise cloud platform for mobile that provides products, solutions, data and services for brands worldwide, announced today that the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has issued a Notice of Allowance for the Company’s patent application entitled “Systems and Methods for Enterprise Branded Application Frameworks for Mobile and Other Environments.” The new patent allowances further strengthen, expand and protect the Company’s core patent portfolio underlying its Multiscreen-as-a-Service (MaaS) platform, including:

The newly allowed claims address a mobile application that includes a navigation menu for accessing a series of predefined categories of branding features and sub-menus for providing access to specific functions within the predefined categories. A computer resource accumulates and analyzes user interactions with a mobile application from many mobile devices and application analytics are used to develop statistics to promote brand extension.

“United States patents 8,788,358 and 9,965,775, held by Phunware, claim systems and methods for creating mobile applications for brand extension or promotion,” said Tushar Patel, EVP of Corporate Development of Phunware. “However, these new patent claims underlie allowances for the system itself, including mobile applications for a plurality of users, which then allows enterprises to more efficiently and effectively extend and promote their brands through a dynamic mobile ecosystem.”

These new patent claims and allowances add to Phunware’s growing intellectual property (IP) portfolio, currently consisting of 17 issued patents and 5 patents pending. Click here to learn more about Phunware’s patents.
