What is FastMall?

For the Shopping Mall owners and management, FastMall™ options offer advertising revenue programs, route tracking analytics (who has been or passed by), social commerce and updating, bar code scanning, real time push notifications, voice recognition (for the visually and hearing impaired), emergency mode applications, couponing and much more.

Now in Canada, FastMall has been created to help people know exactly where everything is located at any shopping mall, all in the palm of your hand for Android, iPOD, iPAD, iPHONE platforms. Soon to be available for Windows. FastMall™ and MapEverywhere™ are both free downloads for use at Canadian Malls!!

Have you ever been lost in the mall trying to find a particular store? Have you ever parked on one side of the mall only to find your destination at the opposite end? Have you been in a situation where you forgot where you parked your vehicle? How about getting something to eat- where is the food court and what restaurants do they have? And of course, which way do you run when you desperately need a restroom? Once you sign in, you can automatically become aware of the many discounts, pricing specials, product availabilities in many of the stores. Now you can relax and find everything you need for yourself and your friends and family.

FastMall can be used to inform you of any information the mall you are traveling through needs or wants to tell you. Simply put, the way FastMall™ works is by selecting a 'from location' to set where you are now. By selecting a “to location” you set where you want to go. FastMall™ will provide you with turn-by-turn navigation using visual references to guide you along the way. FastMall™ doesn’t ask you to measure distances, remember how you got there or anything else. Just read the directions and walk.

FastMall was designed such that by shaking the phone in your hand it can automatically show you specific “points of interest”. Often this is used for restrooms but depending on how and where we apply the technology it might be for emergency exits or emergency services providers, points of interest, stores, elevators, convenience services, day care or restaurants or whatever needs dictate. We provide a "where did I park" module that allows the where they left their vehicle. As well, make a wish list of things you must have, synch your status on Twitter and Facebook.

FastMall lets you start shopping at home, plan your outing and locate where the deals are from the comfort of your office or home. FastMall™ guides you through the mall, wherever you need to go. It's easy to find exactly what you want, when you want it and when you REALLY need it. Get in, get it, and get out. That's what FastMall is all about! It's the app you've always needed and won't want to be without." All without WiFi, Internet signal or wireless and it is free. http://www.fastmall.com/malls.html

FastMall truly enhances your shopping experience by finding the deals, saving money all with easy navigation without the use of GPS, WiFi or Internet!!

An interview from the CEO and President of MapOS and FastMall

Sports Venues: If it is in a Stadium or Arena environment it might be about upcoming games, concerts or events, activities on or around the facility, sports news, restaurant and shopping offerings, promotions, team contact information, safety and security notices, schedules, Stadium or Arena staff contact information and availability or just about anything.

Universities, Colleges and Schools: Along the way MapEverywhere™ can be used to inform your students, guests, staff, and visitors of any information the entity you are traveling through needs or wants to tell you. If it’s in a College or University environment it might be about new class schedules, activities on or around the campus. It can be about sports news, cultural or art exhibits, classes being offered, professor's and administrators schedules, contact information and availability, what services are available from the school's various departments, security and emergency processes and procedures, new items in the book stores, food courts, on campus shops or just about anything.

Hospitals and Medical Centres: A point that needs to be stressed here is that MapEverywhere™ for Hospitals and Medical Centers can be utilized by both the institution's personnel, patients and visitors to the location. By utilizing our different levels of security we can control who sees what in one application. With MapEverywhere™ you can locate clinics, laboratories, nursing stations, classrooms, operating theatres, waiting rooms, chapels, elevators, entrances and exits, shops, emergency exits, handicapped routing, routing for older and the infirm. Please try to imagine being able to offer the ability for your patients and their families to be able to access locations of clinics, offices, a listing of all staff associated with the institution, their physical location, their office hours and availability, their specialties and their contact info. These are some of our MapEverywhere™ offering.

MapEverywhere™ is great for any venue. No matter what type of ‘brick and mortar’ venue, if your guests drive to it they'll need to get back to their vehicle. MapEverywhere™ allows them to record in their own words and using reference points that mean something to them exactly where they parked their car and replay them whenever they need.

MapEverywhere™ offers you the choice of an elevator only route so you can avoid stairs, escalators and the like. This is especially helpful for families with young children, baby strollers and carriages as well as for seniors and the physically challenged.

MapEverywhere’s™ patent pending non GPS "Take Me There" is the function that provides a ‘turn-by-turn’ guidance system that was created to allow your guests and visitors to see where they want to go and how to get there fast. Just search for any point on the map, choose one and tap "Take Me There"; follow the prompts and they'll be directed to their destination without WiFi, Internet or GPS.

No need to be online in any way to use the navigation function. As GPS systems can fail indoors, MapEverywhere™ uses our patent pending technology to guide you to your destination without WiFi, Internet or Wireless!

For the visually and hearing impaired, MapEverywhere™ offers voice over navigation compatibility and is incorporated into our software Download the FastMall app FREE: www.fastmall.com and view the samples of MapEverywhere™ venues @ www.mapeverywhere.com

Idea Mensch Interviews Sam Feuer – Founder and CEO of MapEverywhere

Ever gotten lost in a mall, hospital or theme park? Sam Feuer explains how his idea for MapEverywhere came about and how he made it possible.

What are you working on right now?

We are currently working with Fortune 500 companies and several others on ensuring MapOS (the operating system for navigation without GPS, WIFI or Internet signal) can be easily utilized as a self service or custom enterprise solution for any indoor or outdoor space anywhere in the world in any language in the world. The OS is for simple, visual and precise turn by turn, multi-level navigation that will never fail due to signal loss or lack of power. If you have a charged mobile smart phone, you can get around easily, period.

Where did the idea for navigation without GPS, WIFI or Internet signal come from? GPS and Wifi fail over time no matter where you are navigating to. We built the entire platform utilizing GPS and WIFI initially and it failed miserably because of these dropped signals. I challenged my team to build the app and an actual platform for any venue in the world without GPS or WIFI for turn by turn, multi-level navigation and over the course of many months we were able to execute this product.

My wife Amie and I were walking through the Menlo Park Mall in New Jersey. She was 6 and half months pregnant with my son Maximus and needed a restroom immediately. We hunted for a good 10 minutes before finding the restroom based on the static directory. The only issue was that restroom was out of order and there was no other information on where another restroom was. We asked 3 employees and no one knew. Amie said, Sam, you have to make a mall app to find bathrooms. And so it begun, never thinking about no-GPS navigation we landed into this space and were able to rise to the challenge of creating a technological advancement in navigation that is being utilized in 32 countries in multiple languages at the time of this publication.
