Japanese app helps workers find open toilets -- and employers track bathroom time
Feb. 22 (UPI) -- A Japanese telecom firm announced the creation of an app to help workers find available bathroom stalls -- and to tell employers if they spend too much time in there.
KDDI said the app, which will be available to businesses in March, will tell workers in participating buildings where they can find the nearest available bathroom stall.
"People often waste time by looking around for an available toilet on various floors or by waiting until one becomes available," KDDI spokesman Daisuke Maruo told The Japan Times. "We believe this service will help people waste less time."
The app uses sensors installed on the stall doors to determine whether they are occupied or available for use.
