Hello Everyone

I am setting up a FREE app for the iphone that will contain a database of multiple choice questions

I am to have at least 150 questions, but hope to get far more

I have a demo of the app working and I think it's great but

I need your help...

I need questions !!

If you could send me your questions and answers, I will add them to the app. The questions need to be non-copyrighted so please do not cut and paste from other products

I found the multiple choice method was the best way to learn when I took my Sergeants exam 6 years ago, passing first time

I feel the cost of some current PC products is high. More importantly, I think there should be a product for the iphone, ipod touch and ipad - these are so popular and portable, it can only mean more study !!

In this day and age, I think we should be able to set up and run our own program to benefit all of us

This is completely genuine, I understand you may wonder why its free but I genuinely just want to set it up and help others. It may have some small adverts in the app to cover fees to Apple etc but they will not hinder the running of the study

Should you have any concerns, feel free to PM me and I can give you my Police email address to prove I am genuine 

Hope to hear from you all soon

A very limited market I would have thought.  First it will only be attractive to Police officers.  Not only that, but Police officers who are going to sit their Ospre.  Not only that, but Police officers who are going to sit their Ospre AND have an iPhone / iPad.  Can't see your advertisers making much.

well as I say, I'm not doing this to make money. I think it will also work on any pc as well

Its actually fairly easy once we have the questions

What I like is the fact it can easily be expanded by the very people that use it 

I guess it could apply for student officers, CID candidates as well as offers just trying to improve their knowledge

I can now confirm that there would be apps for 

iphone/ipad/ipod touch

blackberry

and a deskstop or online pc version

I don't have to write the "engine" for the apps. These are already written by various companies - there are numerous flashcard apps and programs

The app I have used for the iphone is gflash+  (free) or gflashpro (£2.39)

This is a demo for iphone

This is a demo for the blackberry

http://www.gwhizmobile.com/Desktop/gFlash+demo.php

You will see in the demo that you can easily add flashcards that others have made

Simply select my set, which is called Cop iQ

This will prove how this works and hopefully show that this is not some sort of con, that we really can take charge of our own learning for free (or £2.39 if you buy the gflashpro version !!!)

Hopefully a useful tool

I just need the questions !!!
