MMDA Blackberry app now available

Motorists with BlackBerry smartphones can finally get much-needed help navigating through Metro Manila traffic with the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority's (MMDA's) navigation app.
 
The MMDA app for BlackBerry smartphones and mobile devices debuted Thursday, available on BlackBerry's App World as a free download.
 
Among the app's listed features are:
 
  • View the traffic situation in Map or Line View
  • Includes EDSA, C5, SLEX, Roxas Blvd, Ortigas, Commonwealth, Marcos Highway, Katipunan, Espana, & Quezon Ave.
  • View problem areas so you can avoid them
  • MMDA FAQs built-in for your guidance
  • Includes MMDA Directory
 
The app requires BlackBerry 5.0.0 or higher.
 
On the other hand, the Pinoy BB Developer Group said it is still fixing something for the map view on the BlackBerry 9800 series.
 
For his part, MMDA traffic discipline unit head Yves Gonzalez tweeted the app for Microsoft's Windows Phone 7 series is still undergoing "further polishing."

"Versions for other mobile operating systems are in finishing stages of development and will hopefully be out soon," Gonzalez told GMA News Online in an SMS message.

He also pointed out that all MMDA mobile apps were developed at no cost to taxpayers, as volunteer developers were enlisted to create the programs. — TJD, GMA News
