The popular Realtor.com app is now available for users of iPad – a perfect match up really! The Realtor.com service (Sorry, USA only) now supports iPhone, iPad, Android, and Windows Phone 7 mobile clients.
There’s likely no better example of an app or mobile service that can take advantage of location and geography than a real estate app like Realtor.com. Users navigate the service and desired listings on a map, spatial search is used to identify properties of interest, and now sse the iPad’s finger controls to slide, pinch, zoom and pan through a map to drill down into a neighborhood or particular street. Search results can then be located and visited using the device GPS functionality for navigation.
