The Commute app, as its name suggests, is a mobile app that gives you the information you need to make your daily drive with minimum fuss. This app proactively monitors road conditions and alerts you to travel times and potential incidents that could hamper your commute.
To use this app, start by entering basic information about your commute and begin receiving notifications 15 minutes prior to your departure. Swiping right on the app interface will enable you to view current conditions, while swiping left takes you to the navigation interface, which you can use to find alternate routes and nearby gas stations, eateries and landmarks.
Like any good commuting apps, this one revolves around the principle of minimizing surprises. Because at the end of the day, no commuter wants surprises.
