Motorists on the go this summer are just a click away from updated travel information. Anyone with an Apple iPhone can use AAA’s TripTik® Mobile application, the first free app of its kind, to find the cheapest fuel prices, maps, directions and AAA offices while away from home. The AAA TripTik Mobile app is a GPS-based, mobile version of AAA.com’s TripTik Travel Planner, and similarly shows fuel prices and spots AAA Approved hotels and restaurants, attractions, AAA offices and other points of interest near a user’s location. Hotel information includes AAA’s Diamond Ratings, which are based on professional in-person inspections, and the option to call for reservations with the touch of a button. As a full-feature, on-the-go application, AAA TripTik Mobile provides maps and directions to get users to their destinations. The app can calculate and display the route to a selected AAA point of interest or to a user-entered address. It provides voice guidance for the next maneuver at the press of a button or by shaking the iPhone. The app requires uninterrupted Wi-Fi access for full functionality on iPod Touch devices. The AAA Discounts app, which has been downloaded more than 800,000 times, also uses GPS technology to acquire a user’s location and displays nearby AAA Discount locations. Both apps are available for free download at the iTunes Store. For more information, visit the AAA iPhone Support page. |
