I have been playing with this and I don’t think the words change. GPS on the phone is not entirely accurate. I can tell this better on my Android phone than on my Iphone. But basically, my location is varying slightly even when I don’t move because of the changing accuracy of GPS. I think if I go to an outside location it will be more consistent. But what I find is that old words still get me here. So although my words appear to change, the original words still yield close to my location. Just like with GPS sometimes it puts me next door and sometimes here. So I think any words it gives you will get someone close. And I think if you’re outdoors it will be closer. So I’m going to declare my words the ones in front of my house even if in my room they’re different and also more changing.
On the web site they talk about putting your words on your web site or on a sign. And if this is the address system for some place, then they numbers do in fact have to be static. Everything I reads indicate they are static, so I think it’s the accuracy of GPS. It’s hard for us because when you put your address in, they still want you to pick a square which we can’t do.

For this reason, before you give a three words address to any one, one has to check the three words at the time they need to determine their exact location. For example, if the three words address to your backyard now is cat.dog.bird, after half an hour the words could become, car.shop.mouse. This is what I noticed, so please correct me if you have a different experience. Regards Cris -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
