A simple Android app (using Eclipse): General Description: This is a very simple app that with the push of a button will send a text message to a selected contact from your phones address book. The text message will include a formatted GPS coordinate along with a pre-selected statement that can be pushed which will open the location via Google maps. Technical Description: Since the app is focused on quick position relay, the main screen should consist of the following: 1. Select contact dropdown box (Pulls from contact list) 2. Pre-set response dropdown box (Sample statements can include: “Pick me up here” or “I am currently at” or “My car broke down here”…) 3. Ability to add your own pre-set response (So if I want to add something like “I am getting drunk here”). Adding your own pre-sets will require storing the data on your phone. 4. Then under the items above there will be one large button that reads “Send Location”. *Clarification: The pre-set responses will show up on the text before the GPS coordinates. Sample output: Mike Douse Sent: My car broke down here. [login to view URL]@LAT,LONG
