PALO ALTO, Calif., April 4, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Cooliris expands the universe of photos and gives users the best experience to browse through all their collections in one app. The Cooliris app now turns on endless discovery of friends' photos for Renren, so that all Renren users can beautifully experience not only their photos, but also their friends' photos in one stunning iPad and iPhone app.

Cooliris, which has reached the #1 iPad and iPhone app in 75 countries for Lifestyle, is a beautiful, modern way to browse photos from various sources all in one place, and selectively share them in private groups. Cooliris has already integrated the mobile library, Facebook, Instagram, Flickr, Picasa, Twitter, SmugMug, Google Drive, Google Images, and most recently, Renren in China. Recently, the Cooliris app has seen over three million installs and over one billion photos connected.

Today, Cooliris brings a unique and delightful experience for Renren users on their iPads for the very first time. With the new, deeper Renren integration in the new Cooliris app, Renren users can endlessly discover millions of Renren photos stored online - from their own photos, to their friends' photos, friends' friends' photos, and so on. In addition, existing Cooliris users are also exposed to Renren as one of the sources in Cooliris, and encouraged to signup for a Renren account. To add Renren to the Cooliris app, users simply need to tap the [+] icon in the home screen to connect their Renren account.

"With the new version, our collaboration with Renren is bringing a beautiful, localized mobile experience to China that enables Renren users to connect, discover and selectively share their photos the way they want," said Soujanya Bhumkar, Cooliris CEO and co-founder. "We look forward to more collaborations with Renren that delight Chinese users even more."

The new version of the Cooliris app is available for free in the iTunes App Store.
