GPS Mail - Send YOURSELF as an email message! 1.2.0

“GPS Mail” introduces an exciting new dimension to email: messages that contain the exact geographic location they were sent from! Using “GPS Mail”, a single touch of a button prepares a location-aware email message ready to send to a friend, business associate, emergency service, or family who will be able to immediately locate and/or navigate to your exact location via Google Maps in a computer web browser or the iPhone’s/iPod Touch’s built-in Maps application.

How would you use “GPS Mail”? Here are some examples:

* You are driving across several states, and you need to send a quick email to your friends or family to let them know where you are: “GPS Mail” does it. A few touches and they will have an email with your current location viewable on a map.

* Perhaps you run out of gas, get a flat tire, or you miss a bus, and need to communicate your location to friends, family, or an emergency service. “GPS Mail” to the rescue!

* You’ve found a great fishing hole, and need to summon the gang or tell them where this magical spot is at. Using “GPS Mail”, you can tell them all the catch is on, and they’ll know exactly where on the river or lake you are.

* You are at a kickin party and need your friends to make for the hot spot. “GPS Mail” puts your location in your friends’ hands so they can find you. Or, should you need a ride home and need to let someone know where you are at, “GPS Mail” has got you covered.

* You are meeting friends at a new restaurant in a difficult-to-navigate part of town. You arrive first, and using “GPS Mail” can guide your friends directly in to a great meal and great company!

Forget the complexity of navigation applications which bury you in controls and statistics, and the red tape of typical social networking applications which require you and everyone you need to communicate with to create accounts, login, blah blah blah. Sometimes more is just “more”. This is email. Simple, ubiquitous, and more common than popcorn at a movie theater.

HOW IT WORKS: “GPS Mail” couldn’t be easier to use. When the application starts, there is one button displayed. Touch it, and “GPS Mail” determines your current location, and presents a Mail composer screen with a ready-to-send message pre-formatted with a subject, your present latitude, longitude, accuracy, and a URL to a map. Just add your recipients, optionally add message text, and send! The receiver of your email can with one click (on a desktop computer) or touch (on an iPhone/iPod Touch) display a map showing the exact location where your email was sent from. And best of all, “GPS Mail” is now fully iPhone OS 3.0 compliant, which means email sending occurs right within the application: no more switching out of GPS Mail into the built-in Mail application to send email!

The only question left is, why isn’t “GPS Mail” on your iPhone or iPod Touch?

NOTE: “GPS Mail” is targeted for iPhone and iPod Touch devices running iPhone OS 3.0 and newer.
