Call Nearest has been updated to version 1.1 on the App Store.
This app was originally something I threw together in a single weekend. It was certainly useful in version 1.0 but it always felt somehow lacking. The problem was when you clicked "Call" you never saw any details about what you were calling. It was the equivalent of a google "I'm feeling lucky" search. You didn't know where you were going until you went. A little verification was in order.
On the other hand I wanted this to be a on-the-go / no-thought / one-tap kind of utility. I didn't want the user to have to think.
I went with the best of both worlds: display a countdown along with the matching search results. When the countdown reaches zero Call Nearest will do exactly what it used to do: call the nearest match. Otherwise, it will allow the user to call other nearby matches or cancel and start over.
The new functionality completes Call Nearest. In its new and improved form there is really no excuse for not having it on your phone.
