Internet shoppers will have yet another reason for wanting a good value parcel delivery service, after it was announced that online retail giant Amazon has released an app for the Apple iPad.

Customers who enjoy finding goods as well as a courier from the comfort of their own sofa will be glad to hear about the top e-tailer’s newest development.

The application functions in a similar way to the software already in circulation for the iPhone.

Shoppers will be happy to know that popular user functions such as one-click ordering and the ability to log into accounts already in use on the site, have all been made available.

Director of Amazon mobile, Sam Hall, said the company have used customers feedback to help build a fun and intuitive shopping destination on the iPad.
