Miami International Airport (MIA) in Florida, USA, is releasing the latest version of its smartphone app on Tuesday (February 9), which includes a new boarding pass scanner and blue-dot navigation system.
The new app, coined MIA Airport Official 2.0, will utilize more than 500 beacons installed throughout the airport to provide passengers with step-by-step navigation instructions as well as a visual blue-dot representation on the screen of their mobile device.
Passengers simply scan their boarding pass and then immediately receive turn-by-turn instructions with estimated walk times. Users will also be provided with real-time flight updates, and nearby shopping and dining suggestions based on their customizable personal profile.
