An App for Everything

There’s an app for everything; whether you like it or not.

Fueled by the shocking death of Apple founder Steve Jobs the recently released Apple iPhone 4S is flying off the shelves, selling more than four million units in just three days. And with the phone’s new operating system comes an app called “Find My Friends.” If your friends allow it, your phone will track their locations on a map. The company is advertising this as a great tool to stay in touch and share your location with the people that are important to you.

But one New York man has found an unlikely side effect. Last week the man posted on the blog macrumors.com that he had bought his wife the new iPhone and loaded the “Find My Friends” app without her knowledge. Unfortunately when he texted her about her whereabouts; her response didn’t match her phone’s location. Now he’s thanking Apple for his newfound insight, saying the evidence from the app will come in handy when he meets with a divorce lawyer. It’s 21st century dating; and in this digital world, you can’t hide from the truth.
