The automobile club ADAC has released an updated version of its mobility app for Apple’s iOS operating system. With the step up to ADAC Drive 7.1.0, users receive a new fuel price traffic light system as well as a redesigned CarPlay display, as revealed in the update details.
Core features of the mobility app
The ADAC Drive app serves drivers as a central platform for various mobility services. The club bundles several core features within the software:
- Navigation and route planning: Directions and route guidance.
- Traffic data: Information on the current traffic situation along planned routes.
- Infrastructure search: Locating gas stations and charging points for electric vehicles.
- Leisure and camping: A directory for specifically finding campsites.
What’s new in version 7.1.0
At the heart of the latest version is the introduction of a fuel price traffic light system. When searching for fuel stations, drivers can use a traffic-light-based guide for current fuel prices to identify affordable options more quickly.
The update also improves in-car integration: With a dedicated display for Apple CarPlay, the app’s features can be accessed directly via the infotainment system of compatible vehicles. This makes it easier to use navigation and mobility data while driving without having to pick up your smartphone.
Practical tips
The update to version 7.1.0 is now available for users of iOS devices. Anyone who already has the app installed on their iPhone can download the update via the App Store. Users running ADAC Drive in their vehicle via Apple CarPlay should check whether the new dashboard displays are available after installing the update.
