SpotCrime iPhone Application

From SmartLogic Solutions

[edit] Description

SpotCrime - the most comprehensive online source of crime information - commissioned SLS to create an iPhone-friendly version of its website. This was a unique challenge because we needed to present a lot of data to the user but had a limited viewing area (the iPhone screen).

By using the application, users can become more aware of their surroundings and get to know their neighborhood a little better.

The iPhone application has been a success so far and is being used by thousands of iPhone users every day. It is currently the seventh most popular travel application in the Apple iPhone Travel Webapps directory.

Some neat features of the web application:

Rotating your phone will cause the map to go full-screen
User-friendly buttons for navigating the map: the buttons are round and somewhat transparent, making the most of the small screen
Easily navigable list of cities for which crimes are reported
