University of
Wisconsin-Milwaukee released a free mobile app that is everything a university's
mobile app should be. Besides having the obvious things like a map,
calendar of events, people search, and popular links, the app goes
several steps further.
Students can use the app to track their personal schedule and
course locations. The residence halls shuttle service can be
tracked in real-time via GPS. Need to use a computer or do laundry
on campus? No need to make the trek only to find out there's
nothing available - check computer, washer, and dryer use in
real-time on the app.
To promote the launching of the app UWM is giving away 6,000
t-shirts as well as a list of awesome prizes. How could your
workplace or university benefit from an app like this?
