Guidepoint’s app uses the Droid’s built-in GPS technology and its wireless connectivity to deliver the smartphone’s exact location to Guidepoint. Once the app is activated, users can set up an online account with Guidepoint and access services with just a few touches of their Droid screen.

“We’ve designed our Droid app so that users can quickly and easily access our 24/7365 response centers,” said Tom Gafford, chief technology officer of Guidepoint. “The integration of our services with the available technology on the Droid lets us quickly deliver whatever the customer needs to his or her exact location.”

“The new Droid app extends the availability of our award-winning services, which we’ve developed over the past decade,” said Rand Mueller, president and CEO of Guidepoint. “It’s another great example of why we focus on being a service company rather than a technology company. As manufacturers of unique technologies such as the smartphones continue to develop new technology, we want to partner with them to deliver innovative, highly valued services to consumers and business owners.”
