I posted yesterday on the new (and to me somewhat bizarre) FIND-A-KFC application – which is a dedicated app for helping you stay a(chicken)breast of where the nearest 5 KFC outlets are at any given point in time, given your current location info and all that good stuff.
I don’t know why, but yesterday I thought the KFC app might be a sort of one-off. Well … not so much. Today I noticed another new one in the App Store called SUBFinder (to find the 5 closest Subway outlets), from the same developers who produced the KFC app, iDelux. After doing a quick search, I also found BK Finder (to find the 5 closest Burger King outlets), also from iDelux.
While meandering around that particular section of the App Store, I saw that there a number of apps which are more general ‘fast food finders’. So I guess I’m still as curious as yesterday about whether there is really an audience for the ‘single-chain finder’ sort of app. I just can’t quite picture that many folks being soooo devoted to BK, or KFC, or whichever chain, that they need a dedicated app for it. I may be way off, but I feel happy enough with general restaurant finders. And I would definitely feel like a general fast-food finder would have me covered for this area, if I felt the need for speed, so to speak.
The wonders of the App Store never cease I guess …
