DiscoverIt California Lite is a scaled down version of DiscoverIt California which is developed with the idea of Navigating the last mile without having to use a Map. Therefore, even non-techies can use and enjoy it. Maps on the iPhones are many times disorienting to most people from out of the area. Also, Points Of Interest like parks are very hard to find if you do not know the name. Follow the live arrow and distance displays and you easily navigate to them. Works like a champ. The app contains hundreds of thousands of points of interest in 24 Categories so it works without internet or cell service and it is very fast to search through many items using the "next" key.
Very easy on power.

The DiscoverIt! Series of Apps are designed to be easy-to-use Reference or Travel tools that let you discover, locate, or go to what’s around you. Users will discover and locate almost unlimited points of interest, even in familiar areas, which they were not aware of before. Want to go to a DiscoverIt! location? Just follow the Arrow on the screen! DiscoverIt! continuously points to the location and updates how far away it is...
It almost becomes an Educational game.

DiscoverIt! California locations are limited to California and the iPhone must be located in the State of California to function properly. However, the "Landmark" key will work from any geographic location and is not limited to the phone being located in California.
