MapmyIndia launches free location-based places app


New Delhi: MapmyIndia, India's leader in digital maps, navigation and location-based services, has announced the launch of ShowNearby, a free location-based places app for Blackberry, Android and iPhone, that allows users to search and discover all places of interest nearby, such as restaurants, ATMs, petrol pumps, retail brands, coffee shops, tourist spots, emergency services etc. The application is powered by India's most comprehensive, accurate and detailed digital map data from MapmyIndia.
The application takes the GPS location of the user automatically and based on that, shows the list of places sorted by distance from where the user is. For any place the user wants to visit, the application shows the user details of the place, such as name, address and phone number. The user can view the place on MapmyIndia's detailed maps and get accurate directions to it, directly call up the place, save it to his contacts and also share the place with friends via email or SMS. The user can also see and request deals at outlets and brands in the application.
