Want to find the best spot to see the Inaugural Parade and the nearest port-a-potty on the Mall?

President Barack Obama’s team unveiled today the first-ever smartphone app devoted to inauguration ceremonies. The app is available for iPhones and Androids.

When President Barack Obama is sworn in next week, viewers can also livestream the ceremony from their smartphones app. It’s the first-ever official inauguration app. Photo courtesy of Wikimedia Commons under the Creative Commons license.

It also details the weekend’s schedule, live streams the swearing-in ceremony and offers a sign-up for service events.
