This may be the moment when phone apps have PEAKED. After this one, everything's downhill from here. A team in the U.K. is finishing up an app that would test you for STDs . . . by having you PEE on your cell phone.
You'd install the app, then attach a small computer chip through a port on your phone. You pee all over it . . . or use saliva, if you're not as cool . . . and it will use cutting-edge technology to figure out what STDs you have within minutes.
Several public health groups and investors have poured millions of dollars worth of funding into it, and they believe it can be a REALLY helpful way to cut down on the spread of STDs. There's no word on when it could be available.
