Springfield, Mo - Moonbeam Development, the creators of Chirp GPS, the professional mobile GPS tracking mobile app and website used by hundreds of thousands of professionals, has announced that the long awaited version 3.0 is now available for download in the Apple app store and Google play store.
The update comes after a year in research and development, and through watching how users engaged with Chirp GPS in their daily lives, and how enterprises were utilizing the powerful tracking software for fleets, and how even branches of the military were trusting Chirp GPS to reliably track soldiers in mission critical, high threat situations.
"Every single screen, and every line of code was carefully examined, scrutinized, modified, then tested multiple times, to make sure we are delivering the best mobile GPS tracking software on the market with version 3.0. This is a paradigm shift in the way we all think about tracking each other.", says Richard Harris, CEO and founder of Chirp GPS Mobile Tracking.
There are major changes in most areas of the Chirp GPS mobile tracking app, including the web usable interface at ChirpGPS.com. Things are much easier to do now, are faster, and many of the core functions have been moved into one screen.
