Want to learn Dutch customs laws? There's an app for that

Dutch authorities have embraced smartphone technology in a bid to make going through customs easier by releasing an application that tells travelers what they are not allowed to take with them.

Branded the "OK app," the software for smart mobile phone devices allows travelers to check the rules on what they cannot bring through customs, including counterfeit goods and endangered plants and animals. It also has information about currency conversion.

No mention if the Dutch government made the app free of commercial advertising.
