Must have movie app!? RunPee!

Life Hacker - RunPee Adds Offline Alerts for Timed Movie Bathroom Breaks

“iPhone/iPod touch: We thought RunPee was a clever site and iPhone app that picks dull movie moments for bathroom breaks. The iPhone app can now store your chosen movies for offline use, and quietly vibrate an alert at break times.

The RunPee.com web site has also added support for more languages, and a non-Flash mobile site for scoping out key non-action points right before a flick. Finally, there's a $1 Android app in the market, and other mobile apps are expected to come along soon. RunPee's iPhone app costs 99 cents, requires an iPhone or iPod touch.

RunPee.com

“RunPee.com has undergone a huge update. Best of all RunPee now supports multiple languages and regions. You can now read the PeeTimes in many different languages, like: Spanish, German, French, Russian, and Portuguese. With more to come shortly, like Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Hindi, Danish, etc.
And you can set the region to your local area so that you see the movies that are showing near you. read more on the blog.

I have created m.RunPee.com for those who would like to access RunPee.com from their Blackberry, or practically any other mobile phone. m.RunPee.com is a simple HTML version of the website that will let you navigate to the movie you are seeing and view the PeeTimes.

The site is free for all movies that have been out for more than a month. To see the newer movies you need to register and pay $1/year. I would love to offer this for free but I spend a lot of time watching movies to get the PeeTimes so I need to make a few dollars from the site…

A dollar a year (for first run movies, free for slightly older flicks)? To help me determine the best time to make a mid movie run (where I’ve invested 12-15 bucks to attend)? No brainer!

I love living in our current “age”.   :)
