Chillingo is teaming-up with “branded and lifestyle app developer” VEEMEE to bring “Bear Grylls: The Bear Essentials” to the Apple AppStore. The application will obviously feature the renowned adventurist and survival expert as he shares his survival skills with the iOS device users. Included in the app are films, photos, illustrations, quizzes, quotes and interactive tools, all which should help you survive in the wild… or at least learn something on the subject.
And that’s almost all we know at the moment. Plus we have words of the man himself to share. Commenting on the upcoming availability of its app, Bear Grylls said: “I’m so pleased that through a simple app I can now share all my outdoor and survival skills that I learnt from my time with the British Special Forces, through Everest, the French Foreign Legion, the Scouts, and countless expeditions into the wild. We have distilled them all down into this easy-to-use survival guide app. Which is really the ultimate multi-media survival Swiss-army knife of an app! The goal was to nicely blend all the best, most functional aspects from my TV shows and books into an interactive instruction manual, and mobile tool kit all rolled into one. This really could one day save your life! Enjoy!”
