PokéGear software?

(is that really a thing)

I asked the mods about upgrading the PokéGear in the FAQ and they said that while the hardware cant be tinkered with, apps can be developed for it, and thanks to Sora complaining about how difficult it is to navigte, Hope's now gotten the idea that he might be able to program a few new things for it to make it more newbie-friendly. Ah, to be a genius.

So for my first question: What kind of app would you guys like to see on the Gear? The Route friends I have on Plurk suggested a Google Maps-like thing for Johto (and maybe Kanto too), and that's a cool idea, but I'd like to know what others think.

Also, if I do go through with the Google/Johto maps thing, I'm no developer and I'll probably have to fudge something for it, and Hope will need help because there probably no satellites in this world. Silver suggested strapping cameras on flying-types. More suggestions?
