Following the success of previously launched 123RF On-The-Go iPhone App on June 20, 2013, 123RF is now aiming to tap into the fast booming Android smartphone market. To date, there has been more than 80,000 installations for the 123RF On-The-Go mobile app for the Apple iPhone.

What’s more, editorial shots can be uploaded almost instantaneously as and when the event unfolds," says Alex P’ng, Product Manager of 123RF.com.
The 123RF On-The-Go App also has a built-in competition engine. Smartphone users are tasked with snapping photos that relate to a weekly theme. The best and most creative entry will receive US$300. 123RF has to date, given away US$4,500 in prize money to 15 winners worldwide.
