Updated: March 25, 2010 APP RELEASED!!
Download now the Dog Park Finder from iTunes! Also please REVIEW the app in iTunes, as this is the best way spread the word (hopefully a 5 star rating!)
We at DogParkUSA.com are glad to announce our effort to create a Dog park finder mobile iPhone application. The planning is in the early stages so we wanted to gather any input we could from all of you who regular use this website and all those who have iPhones (eventually we may port the app to the Droid and Blackberry platforms as well).
First we have a newsletter for anyone who is interested in the iPhone. It will be an infrequent list, mostly to let you know when the app is ready, and maybe a few key milestones as we get close.
Here are some screen shots of our released design.
The details still need to be worked out, but the search result might show the 5 star ratings you all have given the parks, as well the basic information.
Then by selecting one of these parks, we will give you the detailed information of the page, maybe even show a photo or two if we have them, and give a way to access the mobile map to give you detailed directions to the park. It might look something like this:
Long term we would also like to give users the ability to rate parks, write reviews and even submit photos from the phone.
