XpertBginners Release Their First Ever Application MataMapper for CSUN on the Android Market

LOS ANGELES - June 9, 2013 - PRLog -- XpertBginners (a group of 4 CSUN students) have created an Android app to help other students find their way around campus quickly without getting lost. This application is called MataMapper and anyone with an Android 4.0+ device can download it for free from the Google Play Store.
MataMapper has an easy to use user interface which separates all the building on campus into 6 categories: Departments, Buildings and Misc, Athletics, Dining, Housing, and Parking. The user is also give a choice between automatic location detection (based network and GPS coordinates) or choosing their location from manually (from a list of main CSUN locations). Once the user chooses where they want to go, the app automatically launches Google Maps which provides them with the quickest directions from their location to their selected destination. MataMapper also has a search function which allows the user to quickly search for a destination on campus.

When we asked Alex (one of the 4 group members) to talk about their app, he said "We are very happy with our work because the UI turned out to look really good and, most importantly, our app will help alleviate some of the stress of incoming freshmen since they won't have to worry as much about trying to find their way around their new campus." Another group member, Arnold, added that "It'll also help those who are not new to the school, since the campus is big and it is impossible to know where every single place is"

MataMapper can be downloaded for free to any Android 4.0+ device from the Google Play Store. If you are not from CSUN but are interested in creating a similar app for your school please contact the XpertBginners by sending an e-mail to xpertbginners@gmail.com
