Over Christmas break my best friend Kelly, an Alpha Delta Pi at UNT, and I went to the movies too many times to count. She had just turned 21, so naturally we had to go to the theater where we could order a few margs and sing along to the entirety of Frozen. Because we were the only ones in the theater, our waiter was being painfully slow. And so Kelly busted out quite possibly the greatest app ever, Run Pee. There is nothing worse than missing out on the best part of a movie while you're in the bathroom. This app makes sure you're always going to get your money's worth.
Run Pee is only 99 cents in the Apple app store and is quite possibly a life saver. No worries Android and Windows users, it's available for you as well. In the Run Pee app, the movies are arranged by release date and go as far back as about a year to guarantee the movies on the dollar screens to be there. How the app works: you select the movie you are seeing and it gives you the best times to run to the bathroom or refill your drink at the concession stand. The app contains a timer to sync with the movie so it can alert you when it is best to dart away. If you choose not to use the timer, the app tells you exactly after which line the "pee time" begins. Not only does the app tell you when to use the bathroom, the app also tells you how long the break is, and a brief synoposis of what you missed so you don't have to bug your friend.
If you got caught in traffic getting to the movie theater, then the app will give you a quick overview of what happened during the first few minutes to bring you up to speed.
Once the film is over, the app also lets you know if there is an extra scene after the credits. I somehow manage to stay for all of the credits in movies that don't contain an extra scene and always miss the ones that do. Now you will never have to be frustrated with that ever again.
If the movie was just one of your absolute favorites and you can't wait to get on DVD, BlueRay, or Digital Copy, then the app can alert you for the release date of that as well.
I never really realized how beneficial this app was until I got it. The only thing I wish the app had was a link to movie times for theaters nearby, but for 99 cents, you can't get everything. If you're not completely sold yet on buying the app, then you can test it out at m.runpee.com for your mobile device. However, the website doesn't do the app much justice and you're better off spending 99 cents instead.
