Gulf Weekly Smart app makes a splash with audiences

Next time you go to the cinema, don’t hesitate to drink the bottle of water you were avoiding … chug it down … there’s a new Smartphone app that tells moviegoers when the best time to dash to the toilet is.

As long as you have the new app by your side, you’ll know when you can escape to the toilet without missing the best parts of the film.

Approved by Apple’s App store, RunPee promises to be the small-bladdered moviegoer’s best friend.

The application features all the movies currently playing in theatres and tells users approximately how far into the movie each ‘pee time’ begins, the cue line to listen for and even what they’ve missed … and when you’re on your way back to your seat, you can hit a button to unscramble text that provides a short synopsis.

Films up to 90 minutes get one break, but for longer movies the app offers two or three possible slots. It costs around 400fils from www.runpee.com
