It is kind of crazy to comprehend the amount of smart phone applications there are out there and how much they really make our lives more convenient and interconnected. Efficiency is key these days and phone applications only help maximize on time sensitive things we need to get done and the errands we need to run. It didn't take much time for the automotive industry to catch on that it could really drive consumer patterns towards a specific product or auto related service if it reach out to them via a phone application. Today there are thousands of automotive applications that can be accessed on your phone. We'll explore some of them in depth further below and give you examples of how you might find them to be useful.

We all have been on the road, with the gas light on, wondering if we'll make it to the nearest gas station. Now, you can ease some of your worries if you download a gas application that tells you where the nearest gas stations are, where you can get the cheapest gas within your area, and even directions to the gas station once you've selected your choice. Instantly, the route and estimated driving time, and other information about the gas station will be made available on your phone. If you're wondering if the gas station will have specific amenities, like car washes, air, ATM and convenience store, that is also an option on some applications. This app makes life so much easier!

Next, we recommend an application that will help you out immensely when it comes to repairs and maintenance on your car.

Here, you can find a mechanic or body shop close by and get their independent quotes. You can even start searching according to the service that you need to get done - from brakes, to battery replacement, to oil changes and extreme body work. A rating system will even guide you towards a reliable service provider too.

Lastly, an app designed to help you improve your driving skills and techniques are here. It has a lot of tutorials like parallel parking tips and instructions, and also an official driver's handbook so you can look up confusing driving regulations. It's an engaging and user-friendly guide to help you become a safer driver.
