CAPE COD, Massachusetts, USA—December 26, 2012 –

(PressReleasePoint)
RunningHat today released Rally Point, a new iPhone application that empowers users to quickly organize events for friends and associates while on the move. The Rally Point iPhone app is currently available in the Apple App Store.

Rally Point is ideal for athletic teams, tour groups, conferences, flash mobs—in short any group of friends who are out together. The app sends a signal to all invitees letting them know they should, “Meet here!” Best of all, the group can be as private or as public as desired.

Rally Point features an intuitive location-centric system for creating free events. Users can invite people from personal contact lists, and provide information and directions. Users can also search a broad database for events that may be of interest and share these events with friends/associates who might be interested.

“Rally Point is a tool for people who are on the move and want to use mobile technology to interact with the real world,” said Jason Cullinane, RunningHat’s CEO. “Rally Point changes the way people interact. Want to gather a group of people together in a single location, anywhere? Rally Point allows the user to do that easily.”

To use Rally Point, users must first select the location for the meeting or event, choosing between “Here”, “Map”, “Address”, or “Contacts.” Once this is done, users can quickly add a name for the event, select a date and time, and add a description. Finally, users choose an appropriate photo: Users take a photo of a landmark or simply chose one from a personal database. Most users all have groups: friends, colleagues, and family. Rally Point allows the user to create and save these groups as a shortcut to speed up the ability to send event invitations.

Moreover, if the user really wants to spread the word quickly, use Rally Point to post anevent directly to Facebook and/or Twitter. Once the event invitation has been sent out, users can check in with Rally Point to see who has responded and if they are coming. Invitees always have the option of calling directly to let user know where they are. RunningHat advises all users to be safe. Therefore, Rally Point can be used to quickly locate police, fire, and hospital services in the immediate area using top level interactive buttons.

Rally Point is available for free on the App Store.
