Marco Polo iOS App Lets You Find Your Phone Just By Shouting, "MARCO!"
Developed by Matt Wiechec, a new iOS app called 'Marco Polo' is here for those of us who forget where we kept out phone and keep searching it. The app is designed to run in the background and whenever you need to locate your smartphone, it will work just the way you want it to. Marco Polo is a voice-controlled app that does not need Wi-Fi or cellular data connectivity to operate. Working offline the app overrides silent mode and whenever you shout "Marco" it will respond with a "Polo" or a sound that you can customize. It means, if you shout "Marco" or for that matter any other phrase you configure, you phone could respond with "I am here! Pick me!"
The interesting thing about Marco Polo app is that it's capable of listening across multiple rooms and even multiple levels in your home. The app features more than 30 quality POLO voice recordings for you to choose from. Other than the sound, the app also displays push notifications to light up your screen so that it becomes easy to find your phone even in the dark.
The developer has promptly listed the limitations of the app in the iTunes description saying that when the Marco Polo app is running in the background your iOS device (iPhone, iPod or iPad) will show a red bar at the top of the screen and some of the notifications and sounds (excluding phone calls, calendar alerts, and clock alarms) will get silenced.
Are you very forgetful with the phone and always end up searching for it, particularly when you are about to rush somewhere? We believe this app might come in handy for you. Do let us know your thoughts on the app's features.
