About this app

AMA Road Reporter is a hands-free audio-based traffic and driving-condition reporting app. Before you leave home, it notifies you about issues on your route and offers up several routes to choose from. Once you’re in your vehicle, the app goes in to “drive mode” and provides you with audio updates about conditions as you drive. By using information gathered from multiple sources, including other users, Road Reporter helps you avoid driving issues and gets you to where you’re going safely with informative, real-time audio updates. It’s like having a personal traffic helicopter watching all the highway and city-streets on your route.

Key features include:
* Hands-free real-time audio alerts of unexpected driving issues, including traffic, collisions, construction, and road conditions.
* Active monitoring of your route as you drive to alert you of any driving issues ahead.
* Route Finder that will map out up to three alternative routes to your destination, showing distance and expected traffic travel times.
* Ability to save your commute or frequently travelled routes to receive advanced notification about potential issues before you drive.
* Visual map that displays your route along with traffic speed information, provincial road conditions, and highway cameras.
* Drive Mode to minimize distraction, and provide estimated arrival and trip time.
* Push notifications to advise you of important issues, like road closures or extreme weather forecasts in your selected region(s).
* Ability to contribute traffic flow information that will help other users, all without any user interaction. There are also one-touch options for reporting collisions, construction, or poor driving conditions as well as the ability to provide voice-recorded reports to AMA.
* Coverage across Alberta, with extensive coverage in Calgary and Edmonton to help with daily commutes.
