iPostcode displays a list of the closest postcodes to your current location using your GPS-enabled iPhone and is updated in real-time as your location changes.
Full Postal Codes are displayed, for example LS16 5PQ, and not just the Sector or District like some other apps.
Uses include: telling friends and family where you are so they can find you with their in-car sat nav, having takeaway food delivered to you when youre away from home and not sure of your postcode, identifying your location if you see a house for sale so you can search for it more easily when you get home, or even in emergencies or other situations where you need to alert someone to your location via a postcode.
Postcodes are ranked in terms of proximity to your location, with an immediately visible accuracy indicator of either a green, orange or red background. Selecting a postcode takes you either the iPhone Maps application, an UpMyStreet neighbourhood profile or can invoke a custom URL of your choosing.
