An auto insurance app is an essential resource for policyholders. It enables them to pay bills, view documents, file claims and access roadside assistance more quickly – and some even allow them to track driving habits!

Progressive’s Snapshot Telematics program enables drivers to monitor their driving behaviors and save money with simple app. Although simple to use, however, some users have raised privacy concerns with regards to Snapshot.

Root Insurance

Root uses your smartphone to track your driving habits for several weeks in what it calls its Test Drive feature, providing a quote. It measures your hard braking, turning, miles driven and the times of day you typically drive; according to Root, “safe drivers save money,” so they pass those savings along to their customers.

Root takes into account your location, credit score, driving record and marital status when calculating rates for you. In addition to driving score calculations, rates also depend on variables like make and model of car used for business or pleasure and age of driver; it is only available in certain states; additionally the company also offers renters insurance through their app available on both Apple and Android devices.

GEICO

GEICO policyholders can download the free GEICO app for iPhone or Android to use its many features, such as paying bills, viewing vehicle information and payment schedules and getting technical support 24/7. GEICO frequently appears as one of the cheapest car insurance options on NerdWallet analyses.

This app supports Apple iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad mobile devices and allows users to review and change coverage policies; access digital ID cards; locate roadside assistance services and receive roadside assistance assistance services as well as obtain an estimate.

DriveEasy, an innovative telematics program from GEICO, monitors driving behavior to encourage good practices and punish bad ones, rewarding good habits while penalizing bad ones. However, the app may consume up to 70 megabytes of data every month, so for optimal performance it should preferably be used on WiFi networks when possible.

Allstate

Allstate provides customers with a well-designed mobile app to manage various aspects of their policy. Users can utilize it to view digital proof of insurance, make payments, access ID cards and upload photos for filing claims as well as call roadside assistance if needed.
