Just wanted to give everyone a short status on the next generation of Locations ;)

All the future versions will be provided on the AppStore (if they will get approved by Apple). Development is going on, to be a little more precise it is a complete rewrite. Completely redesigned iPhone App, completely new Server backend (yes, Locations is running its own server app for e.g. the search functionality), and completely new Administration Tool for the Server backend. So developing Locations is not a small task from the startup. Because of this I teamed up with a friend of mine and Locations will be “branded” under this new team instead of my name. More to be announced when it is time.

Feature wise we got a lot of new things to come up with. We are working very hard to give you the ultimate Webcam Viewer application for the iPhone with some fancy new ideas based on location based services topic. We hope we can implement them. In the past I got lots of requests to support live streaming webcams: Motion-JPEG support will be coming! Made it work just yesterday :-)

Do you have ideas you would love to get implemented? Feel free to write a comment!

See you all soon on the other side again…

    Is there a time line when it will be submited to the app store?

    It’s a great app, I would be willing to pay for it. Especially because of all the hard work that is going into it.

    Can hardly wait, keep up the good work.

    Great app!
    Is it possible to participate by proposing new locations?

  6. @Leon: sure, just send me an email with the location name and the URL of the webcam. Currently I am a little behind adding them to the database because most of my time is taken by developing the new version.

    …passiert an dieser Front eigentlich noch etwas?!
    Locations ist ja schon fast in Vergessenheit geraten auf meinem iPhone……….

  8. @Niko: Ja, ich habe eine erste Beta Version gebaut. Dauert halt alles ein bisschen, weil ich nichts halb fertiges machen will und meine Zeit auch nicht unbegrenzt ist (Hab gerade eine neue Arbeitsstelle angetreten).

    Ich hoffe ich kann nächste Woche mindestens Screenshots zeigen ;-)
