DriveMode

DriveMode is a versatile application designed to promote safer driving practices by minimizing distractions from your mobile device. As you drive, the automatic activation feature springs into action when you hit 15 MPH, silencing non-essential alerts and calls, and ensuring your focus remains on the road. Upon slowing down to a speed below 15 MPH, it discreetly deactivates after a brief interval of 2-3 minutes.

Accessibility is a significant plus — the platform is not exclusive to any single wireless provider's customers and offers language support in both English and Spanish, widening its user base considerably.

A standout advantage of it is its customization options. Users have the flexibility to craft auto-replies for SMS messages and calls, signaling to contacts that they are currently driving and unable to respond. For added peace of mind, especially for parents of young drivers, the app includes a feature that sends an SMS notification when it is switched off or if the auto-mode functionality is disabled, effectively keeping parents informed of their children's driving habits.

Furthermore, the software thoughtfully accommodates up to five designated numbers to make or receive calls, also functioning smoothly with Bluetooth® for hands-free communication. It even allows seamless integration of preferred music and navigation applications, enhancing the driving experience without compromising safety.

Please be mindful that while the app is free to download, data and text messaging charges may apply based on your plan for usage and download. Standard messaging rates also apply to auto-reply messages, and a compatible device is a necessity to utilize the software.

Embrace a focused and less distracted drive with this change-driven platform, a system that contributes to the safety of roads for everyone.
