Swedish startup Kivra launches an app and a responsive web service that allows Swedes to start receive, manage and store postal mail in their smartphones.

A survey by TNS Sifo, commissioned by the Swedish postal service, shows that 84% of the Swedish population want to be able to choose how to receive communication from companies, organizations and governments. With a rapidly growing number of smartphone users, the Swedish startup Kivra launches an app and a responsive web service (www.kivra.com) that allows Swedes to receive postal mail in their smartphones.

- Kivra is the market leader and first in Sweden to launch a mobile app. We think “mobile first” and we are convinced that in the future, people will use their smartphone as their personal mailbox. Therefore it is quite natural that the first version of Kivra is available as an app and that we are also using the latest web standards which adapt responsively depending on which device is used when visiting the website. Hence the website makes the most of the screen space, regardless if it is a computer, tablet or mobile, says Ludvig Linge, Head of UX at Kivra.

- Kivra consists of a dedicated and talented team who has worked extremely hard to make this happen. Ludvig is one of the founders of the Swedish success story TAT, which became the world leader in user interfaces for mobile phones. TAT’s software has been installed in over 500 million mobile phones. With his expertise and experience in user interface design, he is an invaluable asset to develop Kivras service, says Stefan Krook, CEO at Kivra.
