I know that a number of escorts received a brand new iPhone 5s this Christmas either from their boyfriends or some benevolent customer. If you are an escort who is looking for apps that can help you ensure your safety or to make your rendezvous more efficient, here are a couple of free iOS apps that you can download
This app is extremely useful to the escorts who use a cab to get to a motel and who also use a cab to get home from a motel. I have personally tried this and I can confidently say it works!
The process is simple. Once you create your account, you simply enter your current location and your intended destination and then book the taxi. Expect the taxi to arrive after about 20 to 30 minutes, sometimes less if there is no traffic and there is a taxi nearby.
It’s a sad reality that whenever a person enters another person’s vehicle, he or she is at risk. We all heard tales of holdups in jeepneys and buses. Recently we heard of knockout gas being used in taxi cabs. This app may not prevent these incidents, but it may save your life!
The app is basically a tracking device. After creating an account, you nominate a trusted person—a family member or a friend—as your emergency contact. Then whenever you board a vehicle (taxi, jeep, car, etc.), you input the vehicle information like the plate number, car model and the colour. You can even take a picture. The app will then use the iPhone’s GPS to monitor and track the trip.
Should something unfortunate happen, like an accident or some dastardly act, you can push the “Panic” button and this will send your exact whereabouts to your emergency contact. Pushing the “Panic” button will also automatically turn on the video camera and microphone, so you can record whatever is happening.

The premise of Snapchat is simple—messages should have an expiration time. You take a picture or a video, input a caption, and then specify the number of seconds before the message is erased.
Why is this useful for escorts? Because many times a customer may request for her picture. And I’m sure that the escort would want that picture to be deleted once the customer has seen it.

This app is extremely useful if you lose your iPhone. The app tracks the whereabouts of your iPhone. I know of many escorts who forget their iPhones in motels or in cabs. Honestly, it’s highly unlikely that you can recover a lost iPhone and you will still need to get a hold of another device (a PC or an iPad or another person’s iPhone) but this app will at least give you a fighting chance.
But the most useful feature is the capability to wipe out the device’s contents. I know many of you use a four-character passcode, possibly with unlimited attempts to guess the passcode, so it could be a matter of time before the thief guesses your passcode. Knowing that you could erase everything in your iPhone—your contacts, your pictures, your email messages—will at least relieve you of the fear that your escort escapades get publicized.
I know the iPhone already comes built-in with Apple Maps, but I have found that Google Maps is more complete. There are some roads that are missing in Apple Maps that Google Maps has. So if the customer tells you to meet in some hotel that you have never heard of, at least you can fire up Google Maps to look for it.
Travel can be a bitch. Many escorts I know travel from one end of the metropolis to the other, from Valenzuela up North to a motel in Pasay. Waze can tell you the traffic situation so you can estimate how long the travel time will be. It works through some voodoo crowd-sourcing algorithm so you can tell if roads are jam-packed. While you are traveling it can also alert you of nearby accidents or road work so you can find alternate routes.
The problem with Waze is that it takes a while to show the traffic situation. You also need to navigate through a map, which could be a challenge to those who are “direction-challenged.” MMDA is simple that even a child can use it. It shows the traffic situation of major roads like EDSA, Ortigas, C5, SLEX. In one glance, you can tell if the traffic is LIGHT, MODERATE, or HORRENDOUS (okay, it’s HEAVY). Works best in conjunction with Waze because you can plot out the alternate route once you discover that EDSA is HORRENDOUS red.
