Bobble Rep – 111th Congress Edition ($0.99)
Version – 1.0.1
REVIEW – “Have a good laugh while you contact your local reps!”
This is the must have app for every politically-minded person 
with an iPhone. Bobble Rep -111th Congress Edition has an exaggerated “Bobble Head” for every representative in the Senate and House, as well as all kinds of contact information for them! I don’t think you will find an easier to use resource with this much detailed information anywhere, and definitely not for only a dollar!
When you open up Bobble Rep you will see a brief splash screen and then be taken directly to the “Location” screen. From here you can quickly and easily find representatives for any specific area. You can do this either by using your iPhone’s GPS by touching the “Use Current Location,” or by 
typing in an address that you would like to use. This search feature works extremely fast and makes it very easy to find local reps for any area in mere seconds!
As great as the Location search feature is that is only the beginning of this app! The menu at the bottom of the screen has four other ways to search through representatives. You can browse through them by State, Party, Name and “Class” which basically sorts them by when they are next up for election.
Once you find the representative that you are interested in touching their name will take you to their page. At the 
top of the screen you will see their name and their role in government, and then to the right of that you will see the logo of the party that they are affiliated with. Just below all that on the right side you will see all of the contact information for that representative. You will find all of their office locations, as well as their website, web contact form, phone office 
addresses, phone numbers, and fax numbers.
On the left side of every representative page you will find their “Bobble Head.” All you have to do to “Bobble” them is just shake your device. The representatives head will then “Bobble” in the direction that you shake. Each “Bobble Head” is a slightly exaggerated cartoon of the representative you have selected.
I have found this app to be very informative, and I plan to use it often in the future to contact representatives about issues that are important to me. If you are interested in doing this same, you simply will not find a more simple way than “Bobble Rep.” That said, even if you just think it’d be interesting to play with the bobble heads this app is probably worth the cheap $0.99 price tag. So whether you’re looking for a laugh, or a tool to make a political impact, you should head to the App Store and download “Bobble Rep” today!
