Shuffle Sound Theme Added to Trapster

I don’t know about you, but sometimes I just want Trapster’s sound theme to shuffle through different characters voices, so I don’t have to hear the same voice for every alert.

If you are like me, and want some variety in your Trapster audio alerts, try the new Shuffle sound theme in Trapster! Our latest sound theme combines all of the fun sound theme voices into one. To access this new theme simply go to the Sound Theme menu in your phone and select “Shuffle”.

If you want to hear some samples of the voices in the “Shuffle” theme, click the soundboard below: Read the rest of this entry »

Trapster’s Favorite Car Mount

The safest way to use Trapster in your vehicle is to have your phone in a car mount. Here at Trapster HQ we have tested out several different mounts, and have found one to be our favorite.

RAM Mount makes car mounts for a wide variety of gadgets, including the iPhone 4 and the iPad. There are cheaper options, but we have found that usually with car mounts, you get what you pay for. Ram Mounts are built from high strength composite & powder coated marine grade aluminum, which makes them more durable than car mounts made of plastic. Read the rest of this entry »

Understanding Trap Types & Confidence Levels with Trapster for the Palm Pre

Trapster is now available for the Palm Pre on the WebOS mobile operating system! We are excited to announce exclusive Trap Type Icons for the Pre, and put together a quick run through of what they mean for our new users.

Part of getting the most out of Trapster is understanding the different trap types and confidence levels that we use on the web and in the mobile applications. We’ve created a system that uses various icons and colors to denote different trap types, ie. red light cameras, and their associated user confidence level, so that you can visually add and identify the right traps. Given that Trapster’s application is only as good as the data that our community members (that’s you) provide us, we think its important to dissect all the different trap types. At the end of the day we want you to feel confident that you’re adding the right trap to the right location, or getting the most accurate speed trap notifications. Read the rest of this entry »
