The Pocket Scavenger
Published: 7th May 2013

From the depths of our imaginary world, to you.

Following the success of Wreck This App and This Is Not An App, we are proud to announce the release of another fantastic interactive app from the highly inspirational mind of Keri Smith*.

The Pocket Scavenger (available for iOS and Android devices) is the ultimate way to explore your environment. The app, developed at the Citrus Suite studio in Liverpool, is released simultaneously with the book of the same name.

Within the app, published by Penguin Books US, users are instructed, to document a spectrum of quirky items.

Users can take pictures or record audio of all the things they scavenge on their journey – creating a logbook of weird and wonderful items.

The items are added to the user’s map where they can also see what others have been scavenging.

Pocket Scavenger is Citrus Suite’s forth project with Penguin USA (including Apps Magazine’s 2012 ‘App of the Year’ Chopsticks) and third project with Keri Smith (including Wreck This App and This is Not an App). Across iOS and Android a total of seven apps.

Pocket Scavenger is available to download at iTunes Store and Google Play (Android).

*Keri Smith is an author/illustrator turned guerilla artist. She has several bestselling books, including the phenomenal Wreck This Journal, This is Not a Book, How To Be An Explorer of the World, Mess and Finish this Book. Read more at her website HERE
