The folks over at LBS Wireless who recently come out with the Field Assets app for iPhone and iPod Touch have rolled out a trio of consumer level apps with Gone Boating, Gone Flying and Gone Trekking. These apps provide the trip capture features we are beginning to expect of our travel apps but they use a full interface similar to their Field Assets app to allow users to fully document locations with photos and text. LBS Wireless is focusing on the notification features to keep family and friends informed of your progress and any issues that arise to highlight how the apps can support safety.
If you are interested in checking out the Gone Trekking app we are giving away a few copies on Thursday. To enter tweet us your favorite trek, or if you do not tweet then you can send us an email no later than Wednesday, 2 December.
