iPhone Garden App for Math-Challenged Gardeners
August 3, 2010 by Robin Plaskoff Horton
For the math-challenged gardeners among us, there’s an app for that.
The Garden Buddy iPhone garden app features several handy calculators and useful planting information. Using the native GPS location services on the iPhone, it provides a location-based real-time search of garden and landscape supplies and service providers, as well as nearby garden and park attractions.
The worldwide real-time mapping feature represents resources within a 50-mile (80 Km) radius of the user’s location. Users receive full details from their category inquiry including business name, full address, contact information, and distance away. With the click of different buttons in the app, users can directly call the business, add it to their contacts, display a map with locations marked with the highlighted routes, and call up a list of turn-by-turn driving instructions.
Discover community gardens, farmers’ markets, parks, and interesting new places nearby to shop for your urban garden.
Available from iTunes.
