Introduction

Malaga Holy Week is a comprehensive mobile application available for Android and iOS platforms. It's essentially a digital guide to everything related to the major event of Holy Week in Malaga, Spain's Costa del Sol region. It's been designed and developed by Exoglas for Cope Malaga, aiming to provide an extensive resource to the radio station's fans and anyone else interested in the event.

Features

The Malaga Holy Week app offers a wide range of features. The most prominent one is a detailed schedule that runs from Palm Sunday to Easter Sunday. The application also hosts a wealth of images, historical data, descriptions of the thrones, and the complete route of the procession.

Real-time GPS tracking is another striking feature of the app. This function enables users to geolocate each brotherhood and their device. Additionally, it offers a Google Maps view of the entire procession route. This ensures users won't miss out on any crucial moments or locations during the event.

Additional Offerings

The digital guide doesn't stop at providing information only about the Holy Week. It also includes a weather forecast for each day, highlighting the possibility of rainfall. Furthermore, users can access the app's Twitter page directly from the interface, which keeps them updated with the latest news and announcements.

A rich photo gallery for each brotherhood and information about other Holy Week events in the province are also integrated into the app. This includes details about the Paso de Riogordo and the Pasión de Casarabonela.

Conclusion

If you're looking to ditch the traditional printed itinerary this year, Malaga Holy Week proves to be an engaging and interactive alternative. It's user-friendly and ensures you won't miss anything significant from Malaga's magnificent celebration.
