Hey,
My dad and I released a trio of apps last week on the Android Market, and I wanted to get all of your input on them, as they're pretty new and we're still making improvements. You can get to them by searching 'MTR' on the Market, or you can go to:
www.sourcecode-llc.com/fph
That site has more detail, and you can download/purchase/sideload the apps from there as well.
Fone Phinder - just like what it sounds, we think it's a better answer to the "lost your phone on silent" dilemma because you don't have to remember to turn it on; you actually engage FPH to silence (or vibrate) your phone, then it's no worries after that. Secret SMS to turn up your volume. Customization and GPS capability available through the paid versions.
My Phinder - Free version will save any 1 location that you'd like to return to for later. Popular use is for the car in a large parking lot, but it could be for your Hotel when you're on vacation, your spot on a crowded beach, etc., etc. Paid version allows for 6 saved locations, with Name and Date organization, and customization. Another huge thing for this app is that once you EXIT My Phinder, it will turn off your GPS, so you're not constantly draining battery.
Phriend Phinder - Always free, this allows you to GPS-connect with any one of your "phriends" (that is any one else with an Android Phone). It's a two-sided interaction, where one person is "finding" and the other person is "waiting to be found" so there is none of that weird Stalker stuff you can get with Latitudes, and the like. This is for finding your friends at a crowded concert, on the beach, in a city, in a bar, etc. A newer version, potentially paid, will be run using a Server, rather than SMS. This will really make the app extremely fast and efficient!
Let me know what you all think!
Thanks,
