iFruit, the app with which you can extend the GTA V experience

GTA V has not yet officially come out, but what you can get in many stores it is not exactly a secret. Fortunately, I have been able to dedicate a few hours of play to it myself and I have thoroughly enjoyed what for many is the best game of recent years without any discussion. In any case, this entry is not to talk about the game but about the application that accompanies it.

More promotion

At game which leads us to a fictional Los Angeles we can do practically everything, but there are certain actions for which we will need to use the mobile app. Rockstar could have perfectly included everything that goes into the application in the game, but they have wisely chosen to launch an app that will allow people to talk even more about the game - which on the other hand seems impossible.

With the application we can do things like create a car choosing the components from the iPhone and later, when we start GTA V, have it waiting patiently in the garage. This allows us to make spectacular combinations in a few minutes and with the comfort of the iPhone screen, which for this type of thing is much faster than the control of the PlayStation 3 or the Xbox 360.

Chop

If there is a character that makes us smile at the beginning of the game that is Chop, who on the other hand is an active character in the story. With the app we can always have him ready for action and even teach him some curious tricks. Obviously you can have a totally full gaming experience without using the application, but it is an interesting complement, especially in the case of Chop.

What remains within the application is basically the social Club Rockstar with which to organize ourselves with the rest of the gamers or the possibility of keeping an eye on LifeInvader (a rather aggressive parody in the criticism of Facebook). There is also the creation of license plates, which are unique for online mode and therefore two identical ones cannot be repeated, so if you want one that says "iPhone" you will have to hurry or it is most likely that it is already created by another user who has advanced, something like what happens when you want to create a new email account and they are all taken.

The application has no cost and of course it is more than recommended if you have the great Rockstar game. Ah, be careful with the download, which is 444 Mb, let it take you early.
