New Release
Remember those days when you would sometimes forget where you parked your car? Worry no more! FindMyCar by Anagog is here to save your day!
The best thing about this FindMyCar application is that it runs in your Windows Phone’s background, which uses your Windows Phone’s GPS to estimate where you last parked your car. However, FindMyCar will activate the GPS only when connected to the car charger. Once FindMyCar succeeds in estimating your car’s position, you can click the car icon and it will show up on Google Map.
Now, you no longer have to worry because no matter where you go, your last parked position will show on Google Map, along with your current location.
