Apple's Patents For Travel and Shopping Apps

Apple has filed two patents for travel apps. The first patent is for an app that would help to book and check in for flights, as well as offering flight and airport details.

The second patent is for an app that would help to check in and check out of a hotel, request room service and give details about the local area. With both patents, Apple would likely partner with major airline and hotel companies.

Additionally, Apple is filing a patent for a fashion app that would give store recommendations and reviews, inform users about promotional events and help users shop.

While Apple is keeping mum about its exact plans, some fear that Apple might monopolize the app market with its money, size and clout — bringing innovation to a halt and killing out apps like TripIt, Kaya, Wanderlust and TopGuest, not to mention all the fashion related apps in existence.
