Masternaut to offer phone apps to transport operators
May 2011 Email to a friend   Comment on this article
Masternaut has launched a custom iPhone and Android app for commercial vehicle operators using its mobile solutions and vehicle tracking technology.

Masternaut to offer phone apps to transport operatorsThe system allows them to launch their own app and make it available to their customers on the Apple app store or Android market.

Examples include maps showing the live location of vehicles, assets and mobile workers or even pushpins showing 'today's jobs'.

Local authority users, for example, can report problems – such as potholes, faulty street lamps or broken pavements – quickly and easily.

Johann Levy, Masternaut's R&D manager, explains that tThe apps take a live feed from Masternaut's tracking and mobile solutions – meaning that the live location of vehicles, assets and mobile workers can be shared with users of the app.

"The market for apps has exploded, and with our new apps, we're giving our customers the means to add serious value for their end-users," comments Levy.

"[We are] giving them a way to differentiate their service, offer real-time information and encouraging them to get involved by interacting quickly, accurately and very easily."
