Google Hotpot Will Help Android Users Share Hotspots

No Comments Google, News

The search engine giant Google will soon introduce Hotpot application for Android based smartphones. The company has cleverly leveraged Applied Mathematics-Algorithms to profile the global population and arrived at several amazing Apps.

With Hotpot app, users are allowed to rate hotspots using mobile mapping software via their Android phones, which are then mapped and available for your reference. Additionally, Hotpot taps Google Places database of over 50 million establishments, worldwide, utilizing user ratings and preferences to recommend places of interest. As you add friends, the application aggregates their likes and recommendations and offers you relevant hotspots in accordance with your own preferences. We believe Hotpot blows the wind out of advertisement calls that keep us haunting all the time, intruding our privacy and peace of mind.

To begin using Hotpot, you will need Google Maps 4.7 for Android 1.6 and above. Update your maps from the Android Market. Alternatively, use it on your PC.
