MyQDOT Tracker 1.1 takes social networking to the next level by sharing needed information on Google map world wide.


The Features:

1. Users can share fuel prices
2. Locations of parking inspectors
3. Locations garage sales
4. Pub happy hours, great cafes and restaurants
5. Locations of speed cameras
6. Locations of traffic hazards or accidents
7. Post a message to the world
8. Even find your parked car. You can see on the map as well as using the compass to point you in the correct direction

The app uses your GPS location to post a marker on a map. Because the inaccuracy of the GPS (up to 1000m), you can manually adjust your posting by dragging your marker to the exact location.



The concept:

1. Each feature has a fixed life span e.g. Speed Camera has lifespan of 1 hour.
2. Once posted, only the owner of that posting can move (drag) or delete (double tapping) that marker with a default vote count of +1.
3. Only other users can vote or confirm the marker by double tapping on it which will increment the vote count by +1. When voted, the life span of that marker is reset so extending the life of the marker.
4. Therefore, all features are maintained by the community. If no one can confirm a particular marker then it is no use and will phase out automatically.
5. You can set an alert for your parked car, in which you will get a local notification when your car is about to expire
6. The app will even tell you if there is a report of a parking inspector near your parked car
7. If you are bad at directions, you can switch over to the compass mode, and activate the point to your car mode.



The following website contains more information about the app:

Your feedback and comments are most welcome

Cheers
