Tech Tuesday: Around Me app

Tree Views Tech Tuesday

Around Me: FREE, iPhone, iPad, Android

While the AroundMe app is not specific to the arborist world, it can be extremely useful for anyone who has to work at a jobsite. It happens all the time: You are at a client’s property and need to run to the hardware store for something. Only problem is, you have no idea where the closest one is located. Fear not! This app can tell you! Where should you eat lunch? Where’s there an ATM? Where’s a gas station? How much is their gas? Wait — do they have diesel? All these questions are answered for you by this handy app, and it’s free. What an age we’re living in.
