New app for PrimeLocation
Thursday 22 December 2011A new iPhone app for PrimeLocation.com, which makes uses of the Apple device's camera and GPS to deliver property search results, has launched.
The free property search app uses augmented reality to display search results using the iPhone camera and combines it with GPS to show the surrounding streets with homes for sale or rent flagged up. Property pictures can then be viewed in a landscape carousel gallery.
Searching for property by navigating the app's menus is intuitive and user-friendly. And for the serious house hunter there are options to save searches and bookmark 'favourite' properties that can then be shared on Twitter, Facebook and email.
All of the app's functionality is available through a map of search results. Each address is pinned on a Google-style map and directions are phone's exact location to each property for sale or rent. Give it a try. The PrimeLocation.com iPhone app is free from App Store now.
PrimeLocation.com is offering staff the chance to win an Amazon Kindle e-reader. Simply download and rate the app in the iPhone App Store for free and then email your feedback via the app (including your rating, your name and with 'Kindle' in the subject line). For full term and conditions go to http://bit.ly/kindlecompetition.
