KarmAssist app for iPhone and iPad

KarmAssist makes it easy for friends and family to help each other. People can now easily discover if someone they care about needs anything from where theyre at which turns an ordinary errand into an opportunity to save someone a trip, and your family and friends can do the same for you! KarmAssist helps people get some time back in their day while also saving money with coupons and other discounts.

Setup is easy! Simply sign up, choose who youre willing to help while you’re running errands and then add some places that youd like to have someone grab you something from. KarmAssist will do the rest! When someone that’s helping you is at one of your places, KarmAssist will automatically ask you if you need anything while they’re there. KarmAssist will do the same when you’re somewhere that someone you’re helping likes… don’t worry, you can always prevent the notification from going out if you’re in a hurry!

Note: In order to add your family or friends, they have to be signed up for the app too. To protect privacy, the app matches their email address or phone number from your contacts to the information that they signed up with. If you dont see someone in the list of people to add, invite them to sign up and you can add them once they do. GPS is rarely used in the app and is only used when the app thinks youre at a place that your family or friends might need help from to make sure that youre really there. At all other times, the app uses the recommended non-GPS technologies to set up the places geofences and to minimize battery usage. The location icon in the status bar reflects usage of those non-GPS technologies (geofences and significant location change). Note: Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
