Performance testing, of course, is easy with the right app. And now you can use your phone to diagnose problems or pacify the kids on a long trip.Our favorite drivers apps will take advantage of your smartphone's nifty features and constant connectivity to help you avoid the little annoyances of the road.


1. Waze

How good is Waze? Good enough for Google to shell out more than a billion dollars to buy it. And that's because Waze is more than a navigation app. It's community driven, using user data to pinpoint traffic jams, accidents and gas prices in real time. It even warns you if law enforcement is right around the corner.

When heavy delays are shown, Waze will also route you around it as best it can. Traffic isn't limited to highways and major arteries, either. Side streets can be included, too. Not only is Waze the best free navigation app, it is better than many pay apps, too.

2. MyCar Locator

MyCar Locator is an app specifically designed to help you find your vehicle. The convenient app uses your smartphone’s GPS to locate where you parked, and it shows arrows that point you in the direction of your car. You can also quickly swap between feet, yards, and meters, and store detailed notes about your car’s location. You can even use the app to remember the location of your hotel, camping spot, trail head, boat ramp, or bus stop.

3. Beat the Traffic

Beat the Traffic is dedicated to the daily driver who wants to take the guesswork out of their commute. The app tells you what route is best, informs you of traffic flow, estimates your travel time, and keeps you up to speed regarding any accidents on the road. You can also use it to create a trip, which provides you with an at-a-glance personalized traffic report. Plus, you can opt for real-time traffic push notifications or email alerts, and share incidents with other commuters.

4. Trapster

Why You Need It: A Little Warning about Speed Traps
Trapster is the best-known of the speed-trap-database apps. It began in 2008 as a free download and remains that way, though private investors are steering the app toward advertising, and a fee is likely in the future. The app lets users pinpoint where speed cameras, red-light cameras, and live speed traps are and rates the validity by multiple user confirmations. The traps are displayed by icons on a map on most smartphones.

Trapster claims 14 million users worldwide and hundreds of thousands of traps and camera locations in its database. The app can deliver voice alerts as you approach a trap or if you exceed a speed limit. You have the option of becoming a member of Trapster's network and reporting speed traps, cameras, or other traffic hazards, or confirming existing ones. Users can also mark road hazards, breakdowns, and construction sites for the benefit of their fellow drivers. On trips over unfamiliar roads, this app is essential.

5. GasBuddy

Why pay more for gas when you don't have to? Driving around comparing pump prices certainly doesn't make much sense, so that's where gasbuddy.com comes in. The Web site posts local gas prices in an easy-to-use format and in the different grades, including diesel.

Rather than navigate to the site, you can now get all that information in a smartphone app. As an added bonus, you can even get driving directions.
