BMW inside your iPhone

If you own a BMW and an iPhone, there is a great application to play with. My Remote App for your BMW. This mobile iPhone application allows you to lock and unlock your car, flash headlights, sound horn and schedule the climate control system run before you get inside your BMW. Actually, all these things sound a bit fun to do, I don’t know the practicality of this application but I really wish to try it once :)

New Porsche 911 iPhone and iPad Application

Porsche just released an iPhone and iPad application for the new 911. I didn’t have chance to try it before, and today I installed the application on both iPhone and iPad. It is really well made application, you have chance to see the new 911 in closer with high quality details, and learn the details of new 911 with an interactive movie. 

The exterior is not something different but it is good to see the interior before having chance to see the new 911 at showrooms.

The application performs better image quality for the interactive video at iPhone, just keep in mind. And it is more than 400 MB, quite big application for 911.

Long Term Test: Ferrari iPhone Case

I just remembered that, I didn’t write anything about my Ferrari iPhone case, which I bought more than one and half years ago from Greece. I started to use this case every day since I bought it. So, it was under heavy usage period! So, I decided to take pictures of the current condition of the Ferrari iPhone case.

Despite it looks old, it is still excellent :)

You can buy it from here;

Need For Speed Hot Pursuit on iPhone

I never managed to enjoy computer games that much. Especially with the car games, I always lose the excitement and get bored of playing games on computer. It was based on fake driving and not giving the same pleasure like driving. So I ignored games for very long time.

However, couple of days of I saw the Need For Speed Hot Pursuit in iTunes and I wanted to try it. I knew that I will get bored and delete it in couple of days. But this time, everything is totally different! The game is excellent, I enjoyed playing so much that my batteries finished in one battery (usual it lasts for two days). I know that it is fake driving but the scenario is so great, I did not even think it was boring for a minute.

Now I am very close to drive Bugatti Veyron as a police car and it is not very hard to play on iPhone. If you are getting bored nowadays or could not find a gift for your friend. This can be a very good idea :)

Aston Martin iPhone Application

Today we finally have iPhone application for Aston Martin. Actually I was waiting for this application for long time. And my curiosity was getting higher and higher after each twitter post from Aston Martin about the application. Aston Martin was talking about the application and some preview pictures were posted but that was all. Basically, it made everyone more excited to wait for the release!

In overall, the application is great and offers everything about Aston Martin in a very cleaver design. After this application you may not visit the website that often. It has everything and updates through internet :) But I could not manage to use accelerometer properly. I did some movements but it wasn’t that successful to rev the engine. If I could manage to use it properly, I will write it here.

I don’t want talk too much about the application. Just enjoy the application :) And it is "free" :)

Evoque reality

Recently I discovered an iPhone application called Wikitude. This application is using the iPhone’s one of the most sexy function, “I can understand my position”. This is the iPhone’s and some of the Android phones hardware ability to detect their position while we are holding them. They can calculate the angle, understand the way which we are heading. Basically they are smart enough to understand theirself :) Wikitude is using a technology called augment reality. I recently heard this thing. Sounds weird but it is integrating virtual world with the real world. With the help of phone’s camera, it can add label to real life.

What is the relation with cars? My suggestion is for Range Rover Evoque (ˈiˈvəʊk). One of the most exciting iPhone applications is being offered by Land Rover for Evoque, pulse of the city. And this augmented reality technology would definitely fit with the brand. Evoque’s spy cars are moving around the world but we don’t know where they are. If you are car freak, you really want to see one. Especially if you are living in London, NewYork City, Moscow, Sao Paulo, Shanghai or in Paris. The Evoques are going around these cities right now. But how to spot them! Land Rover can integrate this augment reality feature to iPhone application and show how far the Evoque’s with from your current position. May be some people might running after the cars.

World's heaviest iPhone applicaton

Ettore Bugatti once said “Bentleys are the world’s fastest trucks”. During 1930s Bentley was known by its extra weights! And this never changed for decades, Bentley is still very heavy and very fast. Bugatti did not forget to mention their speed! Now Bugatti is a very fast truck thanks to its huge engine and gearbox, I cannot say it is a light weight car.

Bentley’s obsession with weight continued on computer world also. Recently they have released an iPhone application. Unlike other application it is 280 MB! That’s heavy weight for computer world. Like their cars, weight is a way of comprising for more comfort. All Bentley’s are heavy weighted but they always offer the most exquisite quality to its customers. They have same idea on their iPhone application also.

It is the one of the best designed iPhone application, especially the quality of high definition videos and photos are amazing. You cannot find detailed information about their cars, it is a mobile catalogue for iPhone. Hopefully despite its heavy weight, application is working very smoothly like a Continental GT Speed!

You can download from iTunes.
