Drivemode has developed a radically simple, automotive grade interface for your Android device to keep you connected with the functions you need while driving. By turning on Drivemode manually or automatically, your phone is equipped with an automotive grade interface. Simply activate the giant, one button menu and do everything only with simple taps and swipes, minimizing looking and thinking. Our patent-pending 'No-Look' technology turns your entire phone into one giant button. Using a mix of voice guidance, bold colors, and gestures, you no longer need to look directly at your phone to perform actions. Drivemode learns your habits to recommend relevant content and actions so that drivers don't have to think. We believe that since your phone already does everything the in-car systems do (navigation, music, calling), it deserves the right interface for drivers as well.
