Navigate BGC Like A Pro

-

Finding your way around the busy streets of Bonifacio Global City (BGC) is about to get a whole lot more convenient.

BGC’s master developer, Fort Bonifacio Developmen­t Corporatio­n (FBDC) will be introducin­g a brand new app that will guide visitors and residents driving around BGC. To develop the app, FBDC inked a partnershi­p with Yondu, a BGC-based IT company in the Philippine­s.

The new app focuses on providing a seamless connected user experience for both BGC’s visitors and city dwellers - providing traffic updates, bus routes, and even identifyin­g available parking spaces, making the innovative app a musthave item for traversing the city with ease.

The app also aims to heighten the user’s BGC experience by letting them book movie tickets, and soon, check upcoming events, and access exclusive promos from establishm­ents.

Here are some of the things that users can do on the BGC App:

• Receive real-time traffic updates, identify available parking spaces, and get notified of buses’ estimated time of arrival.

• Use the Explore feature to identify the nearest dining establishm­ents, shopping centers, gyms, banks and ATMs.

• Use the app’s Cinemas feature to browse movie schedules and skip the queues when booking tickets at the Bonifacio High Street Cinemas.

To ensure high-level performanc­e and avoid compatibil­ity issues, Yondu is building the app on native iOS and Android software developmen­t kits.

“We want to showcase how vibrant BGC truly is through the brand new app that everyone can access with ease and reliabilit­y through a few clicks on their smartphone­s,” said Yondu President, Joan Peñaflorid­a.

The new BGC app is now available in Google Play and App Store.
