Press and App Reviews:

-Tested.com

-Laptopmag.com

"I personally give up on either the walking or texting part after the first pedestrian-on-pedestrian collision, but Sidewalk Buddy may finally be the solution we've all been looking for."
-Androidpolice.com

"So now you can send all your text messages and check all your emails while you’re literally on the go without knocking someone over or even hurting yourself. Just make sure you bring your buddy with you. If you are that person or know someone who walks around recklessly, make sure you tell them about this app"

G70%

This app is very innovative, now I won't run into people while testing on the go. But I think that adding an option that allows to use the front facing camera would be great, to see if someone is stalking or following from behind.

S-Buddy seems like a simple interactive concept and potentially fun too. Question, as to you promo video. Is there a happy ending with guy and gal ?? Good promo video with plausible senario, needs a satisfying ending for comprehensive sell.

Quelle application géniale

Q70%
by Q####:

I have a Note 3, and originally got the full ad-free app from App Gratis. This Sept 15 update DESTROYS the app. It not only ads, but FULL screen ads that actually get in the way of the app. It is also more difficult to resize the window as well. I now have to restore the old working version of this app, to get everything back to normal (App Backup and Restore). Not sure what the developers were thinking!

As a clown in a circus, between balloon animal making practice and clown car yoga, I don't have a lot of time to socialize so I'm on my phone a lot while walking - which can be dangerous in the circus. After installing this app, I was able to avoid all the banana peels that seem to always be lying around in front of me. Thanks Sidewalk Buddy!!

I don't usually walk on the street and use my phone... Because it's too dangerous... But this is interesting and pretty handy for those who do that often....

Sounds like a good app to have...
