Apps You Should Always Have on Your Phone in Case of an Accident

When you misjudge that turn or a driver coming from your right side runs their red light, everything can change in a moment. When you are involved in a car crash, emotion takes over and it’s hard enough just to get through each minute. That’s why having the right apps on your phone is so important. If you can’t remember the information you need to gather and the evidence you need to collect, let an app guide you through it. It can help you get the right information to your insurance company and pursue a personal injury claim.

Wondering what your next step is after a car crash? The team at Reeves & Mestayer is here to help you. Give us a call at 228-374-5151 to set up a consultation.

Life360

While Life360 isn’t known as a driving app, the safe driving features it offers makes it worth a subscription. The crash detection feature notices when you’ve been in a collision and contacts you immediately for further information. If the driver doesn’t respond, the app will notify people listed in your Circle and your emergency contacts. Through the app, you can also request emergency assistance and get help with towing.

Your Insurance Company’s App

If a crash happens, you may not always have access to your paper insurance card. You’ll still need to exchange that information with the other driver, so keeping it handy on your phone is a good idea. You may also be able to use your insurance app to report a crash, take pictures of the crash scene, submit photos of your vehicle’s damage, and add any other relevant information for your insurance agent to review.

Openroad

When you crash, you can’t always call for help. This is usually fine in busier urban areas, as you can trust that someone will call the police—but what happens if you’re in a more remote area and you don’t expect to be found for several hours? With Openroad, no matter where you crash, you can rest easy knowing that the proper authorities will be notified.

When Openroad detects a collision, it automatically notifies your loved ones, has a trained responder call you, and pinpoints your location for emergency services. The in-app crash guide walks you through what you need to do after a crash and helps you get your vehicle towed to a nearby repair shop.

AAA

Triple A members can access a variety of benefits with the Auto Club app. Get access to your free roadside assistance benefits, get information on vehicle rental options, and get back on the road again after a crash. In addition to the services that it offers after a car crash, you can also use it for fuel delivery when you run out of gas, tire repair services, and locksmith assistance.

WreckCheck

Available on both Android and Apple devices, WreckCheck streamlines your post-accident tasks to keep you on track. This app is especially helpful if you want to gather as much evidence as possible, since it includes a built-in audio recorder, location tracker, and camera. You can get all the evidence you need for your claim and keep it all in one place.

If you’ve never filed an insurance claim, WreckCheck will help you share the appropriate information with your insurance provider to submit a complete and comprehensive report.

WKW Auto Accident App

Much like several of the other apps on this list, WKW Auto Accident App is an all-in-one solution when you are involved in a collision. It’s user-friendly and simple, making it an excellent option for new drivers. Tools for gathering evidence include a voice memo recorder, drawing pad, camera, and memo pad.

You can use the included forms to get necessary information from the other driver, your passengers, and any witnesses. The GPS function makes it easy to track where the accident occurred for insurance purposes.

Get Help with Your Accident Claim Now—Call Reeves & Mestayer

After a car accident, you should act quickly to pursue compensation with a personal injury claim. Evidence starts deteriorating immediately and starting your claim right away may help you get the compensation you deserve. Call Reeves & Mestayer at 228-374-5151 or reach out online to set up your initial consultation now.
