Tyre Safety Companion an Auto Express top motoring app

The Tyre Safety Companion, a recently-launched app for Android and Apple devices, has been named one of the best motoring apps for 2015 by Auto Express magazine. Stuart Jackson, chairman of Tyre Safe, the organisation behind the Tyre Safety Companion, calls the app’s naming as one of Auto Express’ Best Apps for 2015 a “fantastic accolade,” adding: “It’s important that drivers have easy access to accurate tyre safety advice while they’re out and about, so we’re delighted that this latest innovation has already been identified as a potential life saver.”

Launched during last October’s tyre safety month, the app provides motorists with a wide range of practical tyre safety advice and tips while on the go. Available free on both Apple’s iTunes and Google’s Play stores, the app gives a number of handy hints, practical advice and reminders regarding a range of tyre safety issues such as what to do at the roadside in the event of a puncture, how to check your tyre pressures and much more.

The Tyre Safety Companion was developed as part of TyreSafe’s ongoing efforts to reduce the number of tyre related casualties on the UK’s roads. As well as being able to access a host of information on the go, Tyre Safety Companion users can opt-in to receive regular push notifications direct to their mobile device reminding them to carry out important tyre maintenance activities such as checking their tyre tread depth or tyre pressures.
