LivingSocial, the social media developer behind top Facebook application “Visual Bookshelf” and its flagship application “LivingSocial,” today announced the launch of its LivingSocial Deals application for the iPhone and iPod Touch. Now, LivingSocial’s 80 million-wide community, and iPhone users everywhere, will receive one enticing deal each day for 50%-90% off at the hottest local restaurants, bars, salons, spas, theaters, comedy clubs, sporting events and more.

The LivingSocial Deals app offers local merchants like San Francisco’s Cups and Cakes Bakery the opportunity to engage with LivingSocial’s active community with social coupons, daily savings offers that are activated when the requisite number of people sign up. Offers are announced every morning through push notification on the app and can be accessed for 24 hours. As soon as the sign-up quota for each offer is met, the coupons are distributed via email.

“LivingSocial Deals has become so popular with our members we wanted a way to give those users access to the great savings Deals has to offer,” said Tim O’Shaughnessy, CEO and Co-founder of LivingSocial. “Just in time for the holiday shopping season, LivingSocial Deals is the first free mobile resource of its kind, offering gift-givers with iPhones an easy way to purchase inexpensive presents for loved ones on their list, on-the-go.”

Using the LivingSocial Deals app is extremely simple:
Once you download the app, sign in if you’re a pre-existing member – you can also select the Facebook Connect option, or sign up if you’re new to LivingSocial Deals.
You’ll immediately be notified when a deal is live through push notification.
Purchase the deal directly on your phone. The coupon will arrive in your inbox.
The company plans to roll out “Deals” in more cities nationwide in coming months. For more information, go to http://deals.livingsocial.com.
