Auto X the TeXt 1.11

Texting is one of the most dangerous driving distractions. Check out these stats:

•  Texting takes your eyes off the road for about five seconds. At 55 mph, that's like driving the length of a football field completely blind.
• Texting while driving is the same as driving after having four beers.
• Texting makes you 23 times more likely to crash.
• Each day, 11 teens are killed in texting-related accidents.
• Every year, texting is responsible for an estimated 330,000 driving injuries.

Auto X the TeXtTM works with your GPS, intelligently sensing when you are driving and creates a safer way to communicate. When installed and enabled, Auto X the TeXt automatically responds to incoming text messages with a personally defined text reply, letting those who know you that you are driving and will get back to them when it is safe to do so.

In addition, Auto X the TeXt can silence all audible notifications and re-direct phone calls immediately to voice mail when you are at the wheel! This is called Quiet Mode. For those missed calls, the application also allows you to respond automatically with a customized text message. This feature applies to any and all contacts that you have saved on your phone.

Your personal auto-reply text messages can be fully customized up to 158 characters long, so your response can be very specific to a situation or generally pertaining to your driving status.

Should Auto X the TeXt auto-reply to a text message or a phone call, it will only auto- reply once to any given contact during your driving trip. Once we detect you are no longer driving, this auto-reply tracking will be reset for your next trip. Although your friends may call or text you multiple times while driving, rest assured that you will only auto-reply once.

Auto X the TeXt is battery-friendly. Unlike other applications that attempt to detect activity, the application uses patent-pending technology to determine your activity type to best maximize battery life. In conjunction with various device sensors, we utilize GPS to help understand what you are doing at any given point in time.

We believe this is an application that can contribute to better road safety and help people make better decisions about texting and driving. Do your part in making the roads safer for everyone - you, your family, your friends and your loved ones... Auto X the TeXt!
