Augmented Reality is the newest phenomenon to hit the smartphone generation and a new app has just been launched which will no doubt prove to be a big hit with the mobile workers of the world.
Worksnug is an app for the iPhone which allows you to find WiFi spots nearby. Not only can it point you to the nearest coffee shop, hotel or library but it can also provide you with reviews of the location. It can even go as far as to tell you how good the coffee is - A dream come true for mobile workers? We think so!
Richard Leyland is the brains behind the app. He developed Worksnug directly from his experiences of mobile working for 2-3 years in London.
"The knowledge-based economy confronts us with a style of work that is new and different. The working situation is a bit like the wild west – there's no guide to tell you when to start or when to stop or where you should work," he said. "Worksnug is a small attempt to bring back some order. We want Worksnug users to feel part of a community again."
The app sets priorities for the different locations e.g. art galleries are seen as more important than Starbucks. To help with the app, users are encouraged to leave their own reviews on the website from next year.
Worksnug has recently won approval from Apple and is set to be rolled out in London first, followed by San Francisco, New York, Berlin and Madrid.
Want to know the best part? It's all completely free!
This new app is set to save mobile workers valuable time and money and will help to eliminate the endless search for WiFi spots in the near future.
