SEE FEATURE LIST

  • Where it differs is its focus. World Surfer is designed for finding what you are looking for, and then getting you there. It’s not an AR magic lens, but it is a tricorder, or perhaps a divining rod for hidden information.

  • I like the unique design while still staying largely within the iPhone aesthetic. It clearly addresses the mobile context, but more so enhances it.
