If you love Japanese fashion, what could be better than TokyoFashion.com on your home computer? How about a tiny version of TokyoFashion you can carry with you on your Apple iPhone? That’s right, we are proud to announce the launch of our very own iPhone app. The “Tokyo Fashion” iPhone app gives you quick access to each day’s main street fashion snap, the latest fashion news and feature articles, brand data, up-to-the-minute Flickr, Twitter, and Facebook posts about Japanese fashion, and more! And the best part? It’s totally absolutely and undeniably 100% free!
If you have an iPhone and this sounds exciting, you can click over to iTunes and download the app right now! For more information, keep reading…
Once you’ve installed the Tokyo Fashion iPhone app, it’s very simple to use. We’ll give you a quick virtual tour right now! You can ask any questions or report any issues by leaving comments at the bottom of this article. You can also post questions or suggestions on the official Tokyo Fashion Facebook Page.
Once the app is installed, you should see an icon that looks exactly like the one above (but possibly smaller) magically appear on your iPhone’s screen. The first step is to show all of your friends. They are sure to be impressed. :-)
So, please launch the app! Once it’s launched, it will take a few seconds to load the latest street snaps. While the new snaps are loading, you’ll be shown a pretty slide show of previous/older snaps. It’s better than looking at some boring old splash screen or logo, right? Once the app is done loading snaps, you’ll some text that says something like “Touch The Screen To See Today’s Snaps”. As you have likely guessed, you should definitely touch the screen at this point!
Here we are, at the Snaps screen. This shows you the very latest snaps that have been posted to the site. In the first version of the app, there isn’t any brand data on the snaps, but we’ll add that in future versions. We are still working out the best way to show you all of the extra text without making the small screen too crowded. It’s all in the plan for the future. Stay tuned!
Now that you’ve looked at all of the recent snaps, please check out the other parts of the app. There’s a section with the latest news and features from the world of Japanese fashion, as you can see on the left. On the right is one of the screens from the Brands section. You can browse the most popular fashion brands we’ve been seeing on the streets of Tokyo, then click any of those brands to see the latest snaps and news articles related to them.
Once you’ve had enough Snaps, News, and Brands, you can move on to the Social section of the app.
Here, you can check our latest updates to Flickr, Facebook, and Twitter. In the future we plan to add video from YouTube here as well. Video? Yes, it’s in the works! Don’t tell anyone, though – it’s a secret. :-) On the right you can see a preview of the More section of the app. What’s here? Well, anything that didn’t fit elsewhere, to be honest. We plan to eventually expand this section greatly to add things like Search, Maps, and everything else that readers suggest!
So, if you haven’t done it yet, please Download The Tokyo Fashion iPhone App and give it a try.
Once you’ve had a chance to check it out, please post any questions or issues you find. Also, let us know what features or changes you’d like to see in future versions of the Tokyo Fashion iPhone app. Thank you!

mimi (March 10, 2011)
yaaaaay thats great..but is it only for iPhone 4???
tokyo (March 10, 2011)
Mimi – it should work on the older generation iPhones as well. We have to use lower resolution photos for iPhone 3, but it should still work fine! If you have any problems with it, please let us know and we’ll fix it! :-)

Please add a favorites folder for the snap gallery! This will make it so much easier to find photos since there are so many to go through!
Kaitlin (November 21, 2011)
Have you ever considered allowing for app users to save the streetstyle pics to their phones? I would love to be able to keep track of my favorite photos!
Raeko (November 22, 2011)
Yeah the ability to save images on iphoneor have a favorites folder would be handy, then I wouldn’t have to scroll endlessly to find stuff when I want to show my friends

fantastic app but it keeps false closing on my wildfire. please fix this.
Chilakkuma (December 30, 2011)
I wish it was possible to go right back into photos. Can only go back so far, and therefore unable to add certain snaps to my favourites. Some sort of search function would be tops too :) I understand these things cost money, I’d pay for an app that had these features .

Whenever I click on a picture in the articles section, the picture stays on the screen and nothing else can load. So I have to uninstall and then install the app again, to be able to use the android app. I would really like to be able to view pictures when I click on them. =( I’m using an Asus Transformer tablet.
Bree (April 8, 2012)
Where’s the one for Android?
Candice (April 30, 2012)
I love the app but I really enjoy reading the story about the people in the street snaps and you can’t view that on the app.
Yuki (August 13, 2012)
How can I save picture?
Wing (September 19, 2012)
I’ve tried multiple times to find the app on iTunes via iPhone (3GS), but I keep getting a message saying the app isnt available in my country. I live in the US…and actually, I downloaded the app before not too long ago but deleted it on accident. I dont know why I cant download it again :/

Y (February 11, 2013)
I wasn’t able to delete one of comments or my name off a picture is it possible for someone who owns this app to delete it for me?
tokyo (February 11, 2013)
@Y – if you want your name removed from a comment(?), sure we can do that, but we’d have to know which comment to delete?
