mobya: JoinMe is an App That Answers the Question "Where Are You?"

PARIS--(Business Wire)--
mobya launches JoinMe, the company's first app for the iPhone. JoinMe allows two
people to localize each other very simply. You just have to send a request to a
friend and you can see a graphic visualization of your distance apart and moving
speed.

JoinMe is an app intended to be useful and practical but also fun. It can be
handy in many situations: when waiting for a friend at the mall, when driving in
separate cars or even to know how far from home your kids are. The app indicates
the speed of the person you're tracking and shows their distance on a radar.

JoinMe is one of the first apps to use the new Apple feature: notification. With
it, you no longer need to have the app open to receive a localization request: a
notification similar to a text message will alert you automatically.

Unlike other friend localization applications--and there are quite a few
now--JoinMe takes into consideration your privacy. The localization information
is only shared with approval and for specific a period of time. In fact as soon
as one of the two people disconnects information in no longer transmitted. "We
have designed JoinMe to be simple to use and respectful of your privacy because
it turns out that very few people want to share their position with their
friends at all times," says Mathieu Vaidis, co-founder of mobya.

The app is available for free (for a limited time) on the Apple App Store. You
need two iPhones to use JoinMe.
