In partnership with the AT&T Developer Program, the Power Your Future mobile application contest is open to software developers with an application created in iOS, Android or for any of AT&T's HTML5 compatible phones. Designed to find innovative applications that deliver an environmental or energy efficient benefit, the contest will engage customers and the public to vote on eight finalists.
