HDScores is currently raising $5,000 on Indiegogo to fund production and design of its iOS 7 app, which will allow users in the jurisdictions HDScores now has the digital restaurant inspection scores for to check restaurant cleanliness from their iPhones. Depending on the success of the Indiegogo campaign, HDScores will also develop Android- and Windows-based versions of its app.
