In today’s hyper-connected world, navigational apps have become indispensable for navigating unfamiliar territories and optimizing travel experiences.
It has revolutionized modern travel, offering unparalleled convenience, safety and efficiency.
After transforming travel experiences for American road users since 2019, Nexit, the revolutionary navigational mobile mapping solution, has today launched globally on Android and IOS platforms.
The alternative travelling tool has responded to the yearnings of African road users who demanded that Africans deserve to enjoy the ease of movement the tool gives to their US counterparts.
Nexit is the world’s first fully customizable navigation app designed for the ultimate travel experience.
Chief executive officer of Nexit, Mr. Randy Carpentar, said the brains behind the app went into the critical details of mapping resources, to provide landmark technology blueprints that sit mobile maps at the core base of today’s travel needs. The app provides customized integrated trip information and preferences.
According to him, it maximizes advertising revenue by showing targeted, relevant advert exposures. It also enables multiple search inquiries simultaneously at the same exit while showing upcoming exits as the user drives.
He said these innovations are only found in the Nexit mapping app.
The app could probably be best described as an idea born to change the equation and give the existing mapping giants a run for their money.
The CEO said: “Nexit is a unique discovery on the strength of its ability, as an intuitive road-trip app to predict where the user is going and shows him or her, what is at each exit. The app is equivalent to the highway-driving co-pilot every road user always wanted; only that this time around it is deployed right there on the user’s mobile device.
“Turn-by-turn voice and visual directions will guide the user to any stop he may select, while incorporating up-to-date traffic information for fastest movement.
The intelligent app only shows the user places along his or her route, to ensure the user never doubles back or drives too far off the highway.
“On these strengths, it is arguably the only all-in-one app for highway travellers because it goes beyond what existing map apps provide. In addition to turn-by-turn directions, Nexit also helps drivers customize the perfect road trip by finding exactly what they need and when they need it, while on the move.
“Users can search for hotel brands: To find trusted, national hotels to meet any budget. To look for locations that have a gym, that are pet-friendly, have free breakfast, Wi-Fi, RV parking, swimming pool and more
“To find convenience stores, air for tyres, mechanic on duty, restrooms and more. Gas prices: To locate the cheapest gas within the next 50 miles along your route, updated in real time. To search for a favorite type of food, dietary restrictions or options that have dine-in, drive-thru, take-out, open 24 hours, full bar, kids play area and more
“To find locations that have an attendant on duty, dog walk area, picnic tables, baby changing stations and more. To find amusement parks, bowling alleys and more along the route
Nexit users can also search by business name or type of stop and even filter by price, distance and more.
“Nexit’s industry-leading search functions are a road user’s ideal manual before setting out for a trip.
The app sets new standards in navigation by introducing a suite of pioneering features: City mode is a multi-layered search feature which gives users customizable search capabilities along any route is the first in mapping business.
“TravelMatch is also the first feature in the business which gives users the liberty to make coordinated stops.”
He added: “In another first, Nexit incorporates membership and loyalty benefits, offering a seamless way to discover and use valuable perks from organisations such as AAA, AARP. Costco, and CVS partnerships.
Developers of the app said they came up with this feature to help most members of these organisations who underutilise valuable features because they are not fully aware of all the benefits included in their membership associations.
“It means that by providing a platform globally, that combines exclusive discounts with membership benefits, the app helps users maximise savings. As the first app with fully customizable, multi-layered search capabilities in city mode, Nexit enables users to find multiple points of interest across categories, with results displayed simultaneously on the map. This allows users to pinpoint areas that fulfill all their preferences within the same location, helping them explore cities more conveniently.”
Speaking on the capabilities of the map, an excited founder of Nexit, Dr. Vincent Ebuh, said: “We’re thrilled to offer a global solution to local ideas that incorporate both our unique deals and existing member benefits in a way that’s easy to use and incredibly valuable.”
Carpenter said the app and its premium features are free for all users. “All existing navigation apps tell you where to drive, only Nexit tells you where to stop. We’ve all been there, you’re on a road trip and settle for food you don’t want, only to find out your favorite chain was two exits away or you’ve filled up on gas only to find it cheaper at the next station,” he said.
The app has enjoyed positive reviews as prominent app reviewers describe it as the smartest map for a road user. They said it solves many common frustrations of existing navigation apps.
Explaining how far the app has given its competitors a hot chase, a reviewer once said: “If you search other apps for McDonald’s, you will see every McDonald’s location near you, even though it could be 20 minutes in the opposite direction.
“But, the search on Nexit is unique because it shows you options that are on your way.”
