Get a San Rafael Patch App on Your iPhone

Our new app was released today.

Today we released our long-awaited iPhone App. This handy little app will give you access to San Rafael Patch at the touch of your fingertips.

There are two ways to download this app. You can click here and download it directly to your computer, then synch your device with Apple's iTunes to load it on the device.

The other way to do it is by logging onto the App Store through your iPhone and do a search for Patch. The Patch App is free to download and once launched, you can choose the name of the Patch that you would like to be dialed into.

The app stays on your iPhone's smart window and you can access Patch whenever you want without having to open a web browser. This new innovation is brought to you by our engineers and we hope that it will make it easier for you to log on and get the latest news in your hometown.
