Guiness World Records have launched a new iPad App which will allow you to try and break a world record from your iPad!
Guinness World Records: At Your Fingertips costs £2.99 from the App Store, available from tomorrow Thursday 16th December, gives you an App filled with record content, full screen video and brilliant colour photography of world record breaking events. In addition, iPad users will – for the first time ever – be able to attempt and set real Guinness World Records straight from their iPad. Three new record challenges have been designed specifically for the iPad and will be exclusive to Guinness World Records: At Your Fingertips.
The three record challenges giving users the chance to become genuine Guinness World Records holders are:
- Fastest 100m on an iPad – take on the world’s fastest man as your fingers go tip-to-toe with Usain ‘Lighting’ Bolt and attempt to break his 9.58-second record
- Fastest alphabet backwards – speed typing the alphabet forwards is one thing, but typing backwards will need a quick mind and even quicker fingers!
- Longest sequence memorised – a memory endurance test where the noises are inspired by real human sounds
So go on, try and set your own World Record!
