Novato Patch App Keeps You Updated

The Patch application for the iPhone allows you to more easily catch up with us on the go.

With Novato Patch approaching its one-year anniversary — Nov. 16 is the big day — it is time to let newer visitors know about a key opportunity to stay connected while away from your laptop or PC. The iPhone App for Novato Patch is a handy way to keep up with Novato news at the touch of your fingertips — at no cost.

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 want.
