Dubai: Call it the Secret Apps Ops.
When Apple launched its new iOS 5 on the iPhone 4S two weeks ago, it boasted of a new app called Find My Friends. The app works — probably too well, as one cheating New York wife found out to the loss of her marriage.
According to a posting on MacRumors, the cheater got her comeuppance after her husband used Find My Friends — and found her with a boyfriend instead. He went over and clicked some photographs of her cavorting before heading to his divorce lawyer.
"I got my wife a new 4S and loaded up Find My Friends without her knowing," the man wrote on MacRumors. His wife had told him she was with friends in one part of the city, but her iPhone 4S and GPS-based Find My Friends app showed her somewhere else — and with someone else.
The iPhone 4S has been a huge success since its launch with more than four million units sold and 25 million using iOS 5.
There are no figures on how many suspicious husbands are using Find My Friends.
