14 DAY TRIAL // Where To?, the augmented reality app that helps you find all types of stuff near you or far away, has been updated to version 4.1 with a number of enhancements.
In addition to finding pretty much anything for you, Where To? offers turn-by-turn voice directions using Navigon MobileNavigator, TomTom, MotionX GPS drive, Sygic, Navmii/Navfree, Waze. It also uses Google Maps, but without voice.
Version 4.1 serves up multiple pictures per place (some of them in full size); displays more reviews; displays videos for select places; supports landscape in the Homepage viewer; adds support for external directions apps Navigon Urban, Sygic, Navmii/Navfree, Waze; and improves search quality for several categories.
The app also has new categories now, including State & National Parks in USA, Canada, UK, and Australia.
Numerous bug fixes and small improvements have been implemented as well, and the app now requires iOS 4.0 or a newer version of the iPhone operating system.
“With just a few taps, you can find local hits for any type of place you are looking for. Check the found places on the built-in map or in a list sorted by distance,” says FutureTap GmbH, the developer. “Then call to make a reservation or check the homepage using the built-in web browser.”
Talking about the app’s “Surprise” feature, FutureTap adds: “Not sure what you want for dinner tonight? Use ‘Shake to Surprise’ to make the choice. Take a chance and find something new and exciting!”
