Loopt
Loopt is a location-aware social networking app for the T-Mobile myTouch and Android. This myTouch app allows you to follow your friends’ whereabouts and also to share messages and photos between friends. With the Loopt app on your myTouch you can see your friends’ current location on a map at any time. You can build up a list of friends by adding their phone numbers. Locations are shared only between mutual friends who are on each others list, and if the setting is enabled under the settings tab. The settings tab also lets you set the frequency of both incoming and outgoing location updates. With your myTouch, location updates happen even in the background when the Loopt app isn’t running (unlike some other smartphones we know).

The list tab shows all the current messages being shared by your friends. Here you can also add and delete friends. Under the “share” tab you can send updates on what you are up to at any given moment. Loopt can automatically attach your current location to your shared messages and you can even upload photos. This myTouch app allows you to connect your Twitter and Facebook profiles to the app, so updated from there are automatically sent out through Loopt. Loopt is a pretty big social network and runs across most devices, so you can really have all your friends on it if you like. A solid and innovative myTouch app.
