Germany’s best selling navigation iPhone- app, Skobbler, is now available in the UK. The people-centric app enters with a lucrative introductory price of GBP 1.19, otherwise users can get their hands on the app for GBP 2.39. This perfect blend of style and sense allows motorists (and pedestrians) update quicker than before.
The skobbler app offers compatibility with the iPhone 3G/3GS. Skobbler employs free maps from OpenStreetMap and lets motorists highlight issues and correct them as well. This is termed as crowdsourcing. This brings to users with routinely updated maps, thus avoiding expensive and already out-of-date maps. Whenever a problem arises with the route skobbler, users can simply utilize the skobbler app and report the new information to the huge and immensely active OpenStreetMap community. Once an error is fixed, it will be visible to all its users. It’s just like Wikipedia that enables its users to update their own surroundings. This aids in providing better maps by the skobbler navigation.
Marcus Thielking, co-founder of skobbler shared, “We think this is the future of sat nav. Why spend a fortune on a sat nav gadget when the power is already there in your iPhone? This affordable iPhone app doesn’t just unlock that power; it also lets motorists join forces to put an end to the frustration that’s so common with other sat navs. You can either report a map update or edit the map yourself online. There’s no need to wait for months for map improvements, and updates won’t cost you a penny.”
This iPhone app comes with tremendously beneficial features like
turn-by-turn GPS navigation, day and night display modes and active map updates at no extra cost. Skobbler entertains its users with a 2.5Dbird’s eye view graphics along with a take me home function. Apart from this, it is also ensured with an automatic continuation of navigation after incoming calls. Users can keep their brilliant iPhone on pedestrian mode and also place bookmarks on their favorite destinations.
As aforesaid, this amazingly attractive skobbler is available on the App Store for an introductory price of GBP 1.19 for a limited time.
