We are truly excited to release this iPhone app for shoppers, mall goers, parents, money savers, geeks and all others.
We have basically recreated Google maps but with very high end designed interactive virtual maps for internal structures starting with malls, rodeo drive (soon universities, hospitals, theme parks and the world…)
