Dopplr launches iPhone app anyone can use, but where's Add Trip?
The app appears first on the iPhone, but apps for Nokia, Blackberry and Google Android platforms are planned. The app is available from the iTunes store here. But for Dopplr users it’s going to be a real boon. The app puts the combined knowledge of your Dopplr network into an app which can tell your location, while allowing users to upload reviews themselves. There is also a built-in directory of city tips and advice. Plus, as usual, see where your network is about to travel to so you can plan accordingly. Users can also contact eachother directly from inside the app. There is plenty of content inside the app pulled from Dopplr’s own content as well as your social network.
The question mark with Dopplr is how it will continue to fair against Tripit, which is tearing along at a fast pace and recently launched premium flight monitoring and alerts.
