We live in the age of technology and have become no strangers to phone applications that make our lives much easier. When it comes to cars, there are several apps that make driving easier and enjoyable. Gone are the days where we had to use a paper map to find the place we wanted to go to because today we have apps that would take us to our destination using the easiest route.

One of the apps that have reinvented the way we navigate is Waze. Even though there are a lot of navigation apps in the applications store, Waze is one of the most unique and efficient ones. It is the world’s largest community-based traffic and navigation app, which means that drivers can contribute with real-time traffic and road trip information. This makes it easy for drivers to identify the easiest roads, accidents, and even the police.

The next app that we find to be extremely useful for drivers who are looking for a place to get gas at. Gas Buddy is a free app that helps you find gas prices among the gas stations that are close by to you.  This way, if you are trying to save some money, you can know beforehand which gas station has the most inexpensive prices and thus, go there.

Carcorder is another app that is going to be a game changer. Think about dashboard cameras that police use but for everyday citizens cars’. This is what Carcorder is all about since it lets you record your journey which means that in the case of an accident, you have evidence that can help you. The app sells for $1.99 which is a short price to pay for all the benefits you can get from it.

Last but not least, there is another app that can help you control your son or daughter’s speed by having access to their speed and location every five minutes. My Max Speed 2.0 allows the parent to monitor a teen’s driving habits by notifying you via a message if the teen travels outside a preset location perimeter.

It is good to use these apps because besides improving one’s driving, they can make one’s lives easier. For more information on finding the best car lease deals or to learn how you can have a successful car lease trade, visit Swapalease.com or contact them at 866-SWAPNOW.
