LOS ANGELES—The iTunes application PinpointsX, which launched in the iTunes App Store this week and already claims thousands of new users, has been chosen by AskMen.com as the #1 iPhone Pickup App.
“You don't have to be an esteemed sociologist to know that today's societal standards related to sex have changed,” said AskMen.com, in its review of the top 5 pickup apps. “No iPhone application illustrates this point better than PinPointsX, which amounts to having the answers to the final exam handed to you before you even bothered to study.”
Referring to the app as “one of the most blunt uses of technology to cater to the male libido that we've ever come across,” the review continues, “Designed to enable members to ‘locate and interact with erotic partners and facilitators in their immediate, changing and real-time location,’ this app is the holy grail to one of the male species universally held fantasies. Through GPS and the iPhone's map application, PinPointsX allows users to view and interact with their own ‘passion map’ based around a current location, which can be filtered and prioritized on virtually any need or desire. If after a quick scan users wish to follow up on a particular mapped out resource, users can schedule or directly interact to facilitate next steps right through the application.”
AskMen.com, a unit of Fox Interactive Media, was founded in 1999 and attracts more than 7 million monthly readers.
