Edovia; Find me. (http://www.edovia.com/findme/) I was searching for an application to help me locate my iPhone in case it was lost or stolen when I stumbled across this Edovia thing. I'm really asking myself, is this even real or some hacker whom created fraudulent software that is supposed to access the software that is already on your phone.

The iPhone already comes with "Maps" which does everything Edovia is supposed to do except on "Maps" it works flawlessly. I didn't buy it. I just laughed my ass off when I read it. Then I read the reviews. All bad. I can't believe six people ever even bought it.

First of all, Find Me! was available *before* the 2.2 software update, where Maps got the address details feature added.

Secondly, unlike Maps, the purpose of Find Me! is to be able to send your location via Email or to your Twitter account.

Thirdly, before calling our software fraudulent, try to get some information, by contacting us or *simply* by reading the app's description on our website or on the App Store.

If the app doesn't suit your needs, that's one thing; just don't buy it. But calling our software fraudulent is crossing the line.

Edit: by seeing some of your previous posts, I'm not surprised...

I wrote an application like this, it is only on my device though. What mine does is, upon launching it finds the location of the device, then emails me its coordinates to me.
