LifeSaver - Distracted Driving

Continually sense false phone usage when my phone is in the glove box even.

I love the idea of an app that helps me not drive distractedly. It was really easy and intuitive to download and use, the guides were really helpful. The integrated map system wasn't to my liking, simply because google maps is superior to all other map things and I'm used to google maps so it made me sad that it doesn't just link to google maps. The other thing I don't really like about it is the location services have to always be on. That makes me uncomfortable. I wish there was a way for it to be "only while using the app" If nothing else, a clear description of why it ALWAYS needs my location info and where the info is going and who has access to it would make me feel better about leaving it on. I liked the simple and user friendly user interface and the tracking of time spent Not distracted etc. Overall, I'm excited to see how this develops, but I probably won't be using it because of the location thing. We will see. (:

I had a Windows phone prior to the purchase of my iPhone. Microsoft has a cool feature that recognized when my phone is connected to the car's Bluetooth. While connected, the phone turned off notifications and automatically sends a text reply informing the sender that I'm driving. It worked great and significantly reduced distracted driving. I was hoping to find a similar app for iPhone... This app is a great concept. It basically bricks your phone and puts up a pop-up message telling you to keep your eyes on the road. That's great and all, but that same pop-up can actually become a dangerous distraction while trying to used functions like navigation, hands free calling, or listening to music. I hope Apple can add functions similar to the the Windows phone in a future release.
