GPS-based telematics firm, GuidePoint Systems, is now offering a new tracking, safety and convenience application for users of Motorola's Droid® and other smartphones that run on the  Android.

The new free Guidepoint app, allows users o to control their vehicle or gain access to a variety of location-based services including stolen vehicle recovery, driving directions, emergency help and other assistance.

The Android app uses a smartphone's built-in GPS technology and its wireless connectivity to deliver the phone's exact location to Guidepoint.  Once the app is activated, users can set up an online account with Guidepoint and access services.

“We’ve designed our Android app so that users can quickly and easily access our 24/7/365 response centers,” said Tom Gafford, chief technology officer of Guidepoint.  “The integration of our services with the available technology on the Droid  and other smartphones that run on the Android operating system lets us quickly deliver whatever the customer needs to his or her exact location.”

“The new Android 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.”

Guidepoint is a complete system that integrates global positioning satellites (GPS), advanced wireless technology, the Internet and 24/7/365 response centers to provide stolen vehicle recovery, driver safety & convenience, vehicle tracking and fleet management services.
