Trapster iPhone App Review from Trapster.com
Wednesday, October 8th, 2008
This kind of stuff is what the iPhone was made for!
Cost: FREE
By connecting with Trapster users you can build a social network that will save you from getting a speeding ticket. It uses the GPS technology in your phone along with their web service to plot speed traps and police near your location. Now that is a revolutionary use of the iPhone. This is a location based app so you will be prompted to use your current location or not. Trapster is an account based system as well, so you will need an account on Trapster.com. Luckily, the app will allow you to sign up for the service on your first run. Most of these applications and services are typically a little useless for me because I’m located in a fairly rural part of Eastern Kentucky. Surprisingly there was data on the trapster network that a user had submitted. Not sure if it originated from another iPhone user because this IS a fairly new application to the app store, but it’s safe to say if there is data in Hazard, KY…you’ll probably get data for your town as well. Like I said this is an awesome app and I think a revolutionary use of the hardware. Definitely recommended! Check out our video review.
