LOCATION DATA
uCiC uses location to get the right location-based questions to the right people at the right time! Thus, it requires location data and works best with GPS on. Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
So this app is really cool, you basically become part of a community of people who use this app and basically can ask them for favors. The basic idea is that you request people to take pictures of things, like what is the traffic like in a city, how busy is it in a certain store, is it foggy at this beach. You can also ask a math-whiz for help if you wanted, just write the question down on paper and send it off!(I got this handy idea from their intro idea online). This app has the potential to even usurp WeGoLook company if they don't get an app soon! Pros: - Can ask for help on problems pertaining to math or other things that can't be asked through typing - Can ask for real-time info on the busy-ness of certain areas, shops, and even traffic! - Could ask someone to verify the existence of a store or item from Craigslist if incentive is right Cons: - For me, there is hella nobody near me that could help me within a 50 mile radius (frack!) - Relies on people to constantly use the app with little incentive (only does it by favors called karma points) - I had to go do further research to find out how to use the app, it is not easy for beginners - Tracks you and may be a privacy issue for some people Overall, I like the concept, but it requires a large amount of people who have smart phones. I do not think that it will be able to keep people without giving a better incentive, but hey, I may be wrong. This would get a better rating if it had better incentives, a bigger community (particularly around me) and it was easier to learn how to use.
This app is so unique and innovative. I absolutely love the idea and how it's executed! Definite must have!
The idea behind this app is so cool, I really wish that more people used it though because outside of huge areas like NYC/San Francisco, the uses of the app are somewhat limited. However, when it’s useful, it’s amazing.
The interface of this app is amazing and very simple to use. it makes answering questions easy and fun to use.
I keep getting request alerts but once I open them, I can't read the request. And they don't appear under "my requests" or anywhere for that matter. Confusing app and layout overall.
This app is really so useful for me in many situations in life. I can know current condition of places or things I want. For example, avoid traffic jam, learn about places and history around the world,... It's very practical. The interface is simple and easy to use. Such a great social networking app. I will share it to everybody and hope more and more people will use this app so it will work more effectively
This is a great application that can enrich my social circle. I have friends from all over the world can share my favorite photos.
This app is helpful. It tells me about traffic and helps me learn about places all over the world. This app makes the world seem like it is literally in my finger tips.
