Wills and Kate...The Royal Tour App

The Government of Canada has created an app for the Royal Tour for iOS users who can't get enough of the Royal newlyweds.  The app allows you to get updates from the Department of Canadian Heritage on the 2011 Royal Tour as Canada welcomes Their Royal Highnesses The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge from June 30 – July 8, 2011. 

This app will be your main source for photo and video updates of the tour. Check out what is being said on Twitter or RSVP for public events via the official Crown in Canada Facebook page. You can also send postcards to your friends and family and share how you plan on celebrating the 2011 Royal Tour. 

A full itinerary is also included with the app so you are always up-to-date on where the Royal Couple is during their stay in Canada. Royal stalking has become easier than ever.
