YAY messenger

It's a phone/tablet app that's only just been released on November 29, 2014 - I see no indication of notability (and I don't see any CSD:A7 categories appropriate to apps) Squinge (talk) 12:35, 3 December 2014 (UTC) (I see it's been speedy-deleted once already as G11 promotion).

Delete: Agree with OP. When I added the maintenance tags to the article it sounded like somebody trying to advertise a product they're selling. It lacks notability criteria, and doesn't have any sources at the very least. Looks nothing more than a promotional piece. Nath1991 (talk) 12:42, 3 December 2014 (UTC)

 * Comment. Of the sources now added...
 * The three External links (other than the official web site) are three sources of the same press release which starts "Asian-origin mobile applications LINE, YAY and WeChat are posing challenges to technology giants Apple, Facebook, Google and other telecoms carriers, cutting into their market shares, according to a Singapore -based firm" - that's by Clone Algo, the app's designer.
 * Ref 1 is just the app at the Google app store.
 * Ref 1 is another press release, by the company that funded its development this time. Squinge (talk) 09:26, 4 December 2014 (UTC) ( Updated Squinge (talk) 12:16, 8 December 2014 (UTC) )
