The Good Turn application is a replacement for the good turn coin carried by boy scouts to remind them to "Do a good turn daily." It is quick and easy to use; just swipe or double-tap to flip the coin on the screen each day when your good turn has been done. The application shows you have done your good turn for the day, and records the date, time, and location for later reference.
To encourage you to do your good turn each day, the app keeps track of all your good turns. The date, time and location of each turn can be seen on the history tab. With Location Services (GPS) capable devices your location can also be recorded and displayed on a world map and shared with other scouts and scouters.
When your good turns can are shared, the Good Turn Website shows everyone on the Internet that a good turn has been done, including the date, time, and location. You can also see these good turns directly from the application on your phone, overlaid on an interactive world map.
The app is completely functional without any in-app purchases. The purchases will allow you to use different coins for your doing and sharing your good turns.
Wether you use the app or not, remember to Do a good turn daily!
