The iPhone can help you if you’re lost, recommend a good restaurant within your budget, and now, fix a flat tire.
On Aug. 14, AAA announced a “Roadside application” for the iPhone to AAA members.
The free app is available for download on the iTunes App Store.
“When used, the app quickly sends a member’s vehicle location, description, specific vehicle problem and other detailed information directly to AAA for roadside assistance,” according to the press release.
Of course, a call can be made too.
Whether an AAA member calls Roadside Assitance or uses the app, AAA will contact the member to let them know their information was received.
The app also includes a “While You Are Waiting” feature. This allows members to search for nearby AAA Approved Auto Repair shops, Hertz rental locations offering AAA discounts, AAA approved accommodations, AAA offices and retail locations.
AAA Roadside is available for free from the iTunes App Store via an iPhone, or at www.itunes.com/appstore/.
AAA’s first app, AAA Discounts, launched in April 2009 and has been downloaded more than half a million times from the App Store.
