Canadian Blood Services has launched an iPhone app called GiveBlood, which aims to make it easier for Canadians to give blood—and save lives.

The app will allow users to easily find a nearby blood donor clinic, see available appointment times and book right away from the app. Appointments made will automatically place a reminder in your calendar and the app also tracks your donation history.

Features:
•Search for donation clinics near you
•Use your current location to map local clinics, and view their services and amenities
•View available time slots
•Book, view or cancel a donation appointment
•Add appointments and reminders to your calendar
•Easily sign-up or sign-in to access your account information
•View and modify your personal details
•View your donation history
•Send feedback
•Social sharing

GiveBlood is available in both English and French. Like the commercials say, “it’s in you to give.” Great idea for an app to make it easy to donate blood.
