Top Automobile Apps for a Better Driving Experience

July 30, 2012

Most people have love-hate relationships with their cars. While they love the freedom to travel wherever they want in a moment’s notice, they hate sitting in traffic and paying for expensive gasoline. Luckily, there are several top automobile apps that can make your driving experience better. This way, you eliminate the parts that you don’t like about driving so you can have a better experience whether you’re commuting to work or traveling across the country.

Top Automobile Apps You Must Have

Save Money with GasBuddy

Tired of paying a high price for a gallon of gas? So is everyone else. That’s what makes GasBuddy such a successful concept. GasBuddy makes it easy for you to find the cheapest gas in your area. This is particularly useful when you’re in a part of town that you don’t know much about. In many cases, a station right around the corner has cheaper gas, but you end up paying more because you’ve pulled into the more visible station with notoriously high prices.

GasBuddy encourages its users to update gas prices in real time. For each price users update, they earn points towards prize giveaways. This method works well because it rewards users who get involved and update frequently, which enables GasBuddy to alert others as to where the best prices are.

Dude, Where’s My Car? Parking Mate  Knows

It seems to happen every time you park in a large lot: after a couple of hours of shopping, dining, or entertainment, you forget where you left your car. This is incredibly frustrating, especially for people who park in big cities or large, crowded structures.

Parking Mate eliminates this problem by using a GPS marker that directs you back to the car’s location, meaning you’ll never get lost again.

Parking Mate also keeps track of how much time you have left on your parking meter. When you use this free app, you don’t have to worry about accidentally getting a ticket or, even worse, finding an empty spot because your car was towed.

Beat the Traffic  No Matter Where You Are

Beat the Traffic

Beat the Traffic is one of the best ways to make your drive more enjoyable. This app keeps track of all the information you need to avoid heavy traffic. It not only uses a color code that shows how heavy traffic is on roads near you, it also provides detailed descriptions of accidents, construction zones, and other alerts that drivers need to know.

Perhaps even better, Beat the Traffic will show you how to get around those obstacles. This gives you a more pleasant drive while simultaneously helping you conserve fuel. These are two major benefits from an app that won’t cost you a thing.

You can also use Beat the Traffic on your PC so you’ll know what kind of traffic conditions to expect before you head out for your commute.

Dynolicious Tracks Your Car’s Performance

If you take pride in your car’s performance, then Dynolicious will make bragging about it that much easier. Dynolicious tracks several factors pertaining to performance, including your car’s estimated horsepower, 0-60 mph acceleration, and G-force in 360 degrees.

This app could prove that you have an awesome vehicle worthy of the most prestigious car shows. It could also reveal areas that need improvement. If your car’s horsepower starts to fall, for instance, then you can do some work to boost performance instead of letting it continue to slide. This is a good way to keep your car in tip-top shape. Plus, you’ll have access to detailed information that few people have without visiting a mechanic.

aCar  Helps Track Your Vehicle’s Maintenance

Although the aCar app isn’t quite as impressive as Dynolicious, more people will likely find this app useful since it pertains to regular maintenance. aCar lets you enter information about your vehicle’s gas mileage, oil changes, and tune-ups. You can even use it to keep track of when you fill up your tank and how much money you spend on gas.

What do you do with this information? Plenty! It makes it much easier to decide when your car needs maintenance. aCar also helps you change your driving habits to lower costs. That’s a huge benefit that can appeal to anyone.

These five automobile apps put you in control of your driving experience. Which ones appeal to you most? Whether you choose one or all five, your driving experience is sure to improve.

    Great apps for the freshman drivers or even the seasoned ones. Phones and cars are now merging for the better. I think smartphones complete the car’s ambiance and feel! Thanks for the post, it was enjoyable.
