The military and more those of the USA are to the last one in technology. After months of testing an application store designed specifically for soldiers, they now plan to promote the use of these applications by all members of the military.
El Army Software Marketplace It is still a prototype but it already has a dozen apps. Among them are the Soldiers Blue Book, a training guide for newbies, the Army Manual for Social Networks, with its military policy on Facebook, Twitter and other networks and what can or not you can count on them. Also two kinds of guides, one on army values and the other on performance.
This Marketplace is already working for iOS but the goal is to bring it to the Android platform as well. Its mission is to centralize all the initiatives that military experts, external companies and the soldiers themselves have in relation to the development of specific applications. The new store is intended, among other things, that the process of development, approval and distribution of an application is as fast as possible. In this way, the remote can also control and supervise the apps that come out.
Once fully deployed, military officials trust that these applications will be one of the most downloaded by their soldiers for their training and education periods.
But let them be many developed by the military they do not mean that they are exclusively for military use. Several training schools are participating in the initiative (the Connecting Soldiers to Digital Apps, or CSDA) also thinking about its use by civilians. The apps, already approved for use throughout the Army, are available to everyone.
