Das nervt: Schlaglöcher, Graffitis, gestapelte Müllbeutel am Straßenrand. Aber dagegen kann man doch sowieso nichts tun. Kann man doch – hier ist die Lösung: Mängelmelder.de - eine Gratis-App fürs iPhone. Damit wird mit wenigen Klicks ein Schandfleck im Straßenbild per Foto dokumentiert. Die Position wird automatisch per GPS ermittelt und das Anliegen wird direkt an die zuständige Behörde weitergeleitet, die dann das Nötige veranlasst. Für eine schönere Stadt! Mach mit bei Mängelmelder.de! Das Original von der "wer denkt was GmbH". So einfach geht‘s: - App kostenlos aufs iPhone laden und aufrufen - Foto machen und Anliegen beschreiben - Meldung abschicken Wir prüfen, ob es sich um ein echtes Bürgeranliegen handelt und leiten dieses an die passende Kommune weiter, damit die Bearbeitung veranlasst werden kann. Du bekommst dann per E-Mail eine Info, dass deine Meldung an die richtige Stelle weitergeben wurde. In der Folgezeit wirst du per Mail immer über den Stand der Bearbeitung deines Anliegens auf dem Laufenden gehalten. Die App funktioniert als übergreifende Plattform in Städten und Gemeinden in Deutschland, u.a. in Essen, Bremen, Mannheim, Görlitz, Ulm, Witten, Konstanz und Darmstadt. Du hast kein iPhone? Die Meldung kann auch direkt hier auf der Homepage von Maengelmelder eingegeben werden: http://www.Mängelmelder.de
