Numerous studies seem to have displayed that text messaging while driving is more risky than drunk driving or talking on the phone while driving. It is already prohibited in around 20 states. BlackBerry smartphones are all set to encompass a new app that may keep people safe on roads. Auto TextBak provides an easy answer to the ever-growing outbreak of texting while driving.
Our society’s fixation with continuous and immediate communication appears to be the actual problem behind errant drivers. Keeping that in mind, the application facilitates users to effortlessly fix an away message that can mechanically answer incoming text messages, similar to an out-of-office email response.
David Goldman, co-creator of Auto TextBak, commented, “My roommate was constantly getting texts during his nap and would wake up frustrated at the amount of responses he needed to send. It got me thinking about how to solve that small issue and I soon realized that it could actually be a lifesaving tool.”
He added, “Texting while driving is not just a problem for the person behind the wheel, but for everyone on the road. With everyone from Oprah and Dr. Oz to Kim Kardashian getting involved in the anti-texting while driving movement, we are confident that our simple and affordable alternative will make the road a safer place.”
This app facilitates drivers to concentrate on the road instead of their handset. While the app was particularly designed to end texting while driving, users can also personalize their automated response for any circumstance.
Auto Textback can be purchased for a onetime price of $2.99 via autotextbak.com or BlackBerry App World.
