Those features include GPS, navigation, location messaging, friends/family locator, and much more. (Currently all LifeInPocket(TM) products and services are available to subscribers free of charge.)
With little or no learning curve, no hardware or software to buy, and no binding contracts, LifeInPocket(TM) effectively transcends the iPhone and its rivals.
LifeInPocket(TM)'s interoperability, such as messaging, PDF/Word/picture email attachments, financial management, social networking, document viewing, bible, flight/hotel price search and location messaging, make it nothing less than a home office that fits in your shirt pocket.
