Shopping Simplified: FastMall

Posted by Natalie Kaar / Wednesday, February 23rd, 2011

Hello there, shoppers! Ever wonder what we did before awesome apps? Whether they help keep us entertained on public transit, help keep us organized or find us the best deals on everything from the cheapest gas to the most happening of happy hours, they really do deliver. One more example of one that makes good on the promise of Shopping Simplified: FastMall.

The FREE handy dandy app allows you to scrap the stress in your life that comes from having trouble locating your favorite stores in the mall as well as other in-mall essentials such as restrooms, food options and wheelchair/stroller-accommodating elevators. It features maps of malls, turn-by-turn walking directions to your preferred destinations, links to deals and more. Brilliant!

How many times have you wanted to make a mall stop quick, just plan to pop into the Apple store or something, but you forget which parking option makes the most sense. Make the wrong choice at Tysons, and you’ve got quite the walk ahead of you, no? Or maybe you’ve got a baby in a stroller and need to get down to the next level to feed her, but you don’t know where the nearest elevator is. Or you can smell a Cinnabon but the storefront is  nowhere in sight, same for a directory, and you’ve gotta satisfy that sweet tooth. … FastMall helps in each of these situations and more.

Happy shopping!
