What An A-Maze-ing Use For An iPhone!

If you ever find yourself lost in a maze, don’t fret, just whip out your iPhone and get an aerial view to help you escape!The Hedge Maze at Longleat (which is in England) usually takes people up to 90 minutes to escape from, but recently Tim Bentley, the attractions manager at Longleat, noticed that people were getting through it in a matter of minutes:

“I couldn’t count the number of mobile phone calls we’ve had over the last few years from visitors who thought they’d never get out! But just recently we noticed more and more people were finding the exit a lot quicker than before but I didn’t realise why until I went in there with my brother-in-law recently.  After about ten minutes of getting lost, he just said “I’m fed up with this’” and pulled out his iPhone which told him where he was and where he needed to go.”

It just goes to show that no matter what situation you find yourself in, There’s An App For That.
