BEACON

Voted best navigational app of 2008 by my mom!

Beacon will point you back to wherever you drop a beacon. Made after losing my car in a parking lot for the 800th time.

When you park, load up Beacon and hit the giant "DROP BEACON" button. Then, when you want to find your car again, just load Beacon again and follow the arrow straight to your car. Couldn’t be any easier!

What makes Beacon different from other find-my-car apps:
• Beacon is free
• No need to wait for Google Maps to load, or an animated boot sequence. Designed to be useful when it’s -50 out (you’re adorable, Canada)
• Green motif makes you look ultra cool, like you were in some futuristic movie where everyone wears black trenchcoats and there are screens full of green letters floating around everywhere
• Valid medical cure for acne(*)

Plus, there are exciting new advancements in sci-fi technology that are coming down the pipeline, including even more amazing graphics and a magic direction-sensing system that makes it even easier to get to where you’re going.

(*) Not a valid medical cure for acne

    [...] Beacon (Free): Just in case you have to leave someone in the woods (or park your car far away from the geyser) this app lets you drop a beacon and find your way back using GPS and a cool radar screen. [...]

    Where did Beacon go? I thought it was a great app. Something happened to my iPhone and I lost several apps. I went to reinstall Beacon and see that it is no longer available. I sure do miss it!

    Is there an answer to the previous question? I too would like to have this app, but it is not available at the App Store.
