Numerous mobile apps have been created to facilitate the daily life and management of the activity of VTC drivers. Here are a few that are particularly useful.

‍

GPS and itineraries

In order to maximize your profitability and guarantee a quality experience, it is necessary to optimize all your trips. To do this, various apps allow you to get around efficiently, providing interesting routes. The most used by VTC drivers are Google Maps and Waze.

Among these two applications, Waze comes in first position, because it collects the speed of other users in real time in order to offer you the best route. In addition, your trips are constantly readjusted and you are informed in real time about traffic, accidents, traffic jams, radars, works.

Other applications that are more focused on traffic information are available, such as Smart bison or V-Traffic.

Parking spaces

‍

As a VTC driver, finding a parking space can be difficult and expensive. If you want to find parking spaces on an ad hoc basis, you will need applications like Apila and Path to Park.

The application Apila you allows you to be in contact in real time with people leaving their parking space and those looking for a space nearby.

Path to Park For its part, it uses the average parking time recorded by parking meters or peak traffic to indicate where you can get a space.

If you want to have parking spaces at a preferential price in hotel or business car parks, you can use applications like Yespark, Zenpark or Onepark.

Petrol stations

‍

As you know, fuel prices tend to differ from pump to pump. Therefore, it is a good idea to identify places where you can refuel at the best price. Applications such as Gasoil Now, Zagaz, Essence or Cheaper fuel, help you find the nearest station based on your criteria (price, fuel type, search radius, etc.).

Status and calendar of trains and planes

‍

If you want to know the arrival or departure times of flights or trains to get to airports and stations on specific schedules, you can use the applications SNCF and My Airport, which provide you with all the information on trip schedules, potential delays or cancellations, etc.
