TravAlarm App Description
The
TravAlarm App provides commuters with an intuitive alarm system that is
linked to four major metropolitan transit authorities in the United
States. It operates with all of the usual functions of a smart phone
alarm clock, including an aesthetically pleasing display. However, its
functionality goes far beyond a simple alarm clock. The App is equipped
to receive live Subway, Rail, Bus and Bridge traffic information from
local transit authorities of four metropolitan areas. That information
is used to alert commuters to a delay on their usual transportation line
and wake them up at an earlier preset time to avoid the hassle of
running behind. That early wake time allows users to decide if they?d
like to opt for a different route or transportation method, or to just
leave early to make up for the delay.
The
free app offers intuitive built-in features which allow commuters to
personalize their routes and alarm preferences. Users of TravAlarm can
set up to 3 different transit routes to monitor for delays. When a delay
occurs on one those 3 routes, the alarm will wake the commuter up at
the predetermined earlier time with a voice message describing the delay
and its location. It will then proceed to play music until turned off
or snoozed. The music is selected from either the user?s personal
playlist or from the built-in alarm offerings, plus the snooze time
length is fully customizable.
The TravAlarm App is currently available for the following four metropolitan areas:
TravAlarm NYC - Gets updates from Metropolitan Transport Authority of New York City
TravAlarm Chicago - Gets updates from Chicago Transport Authority of Chicago
TravAlarm Boston - Gets updates from Massachusetts Bay Transport Authority of Boston
TravAlarm DC - Gets updates from Washington Transport Authority of Washington DC
