NYC 311 iPhone App with Location Sharing
Starting today, New Yorkers can submit select quality-of-life complaints – with an option to attach pictures – to 311 via their iPhones. New Yorkers are already able to report complaints to 311 through mobile web browsers. The new, free iPhone application will streamline the process by allowing New Yorkers to report complaints to 311 using a program that identifies the user, determines the specific location of the condition reported using GPS technology, and allows easy uploads of photos. Going forward, this functionality will be expanded to other mobile phones, and enhanced so that any New Yorker can check the status of previously-reported issues.
