Starting mid-December, the Kitchen & Bath Channel will be launching a new smartphone app. Free to consumers and supported by iPhone, Blackberry, and Android, it will provide a national database of professionals for the prospective kitchen or bath customer. This database will be searchable by:

• geographic location
• room
• product
• profession (e.g. designer)

In addition, it will also show all professionals in the user’s vicinity using the phone’s GPS feature.

Watch for updates as soon as the app goes live.
