NEXIT debuts on Android, iOS, gives African road users mobile mapping alternative

NEXIT, the prevolutionary mobile mapping app, has just launched on Android and iOS globally.  The launch on Android presents African road users a mobile navigational alternative from Google and Apple mapping versions.

The app has been transforming travel experiences for American road users since 2019 when it debuted on iOS for that market. But now, the focus includes on Africa and Android.

NEXIT is the world’s first fully customizable navigation app designed for the ultimate travel experience. CEO 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. 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.

These innovations are only found in the NEXIT mapping app.

Unique discovery

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 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.

Smart search features

  • Users can search for Hotel brands: To find trusted, national hotels to meet any budget
  • Hotel amenities: To look for locations that have a gym; that are pet friendly, have free breakfast, Wi-Fi, swimming pools and more

Road manual

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:

  • TravelMatch; This is also the first feature in the business which gives users the liberty to make coordinated stops.
  • Membership Benefits Integration: In another first, NEXIT incorporates membership and loyalty benefits, offering a seamless way to discover and use valuable perks from local organisations.

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. The company is working on developing these partnerships in Africa.

  • Innovative City Mode: Another NEXIT First – 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 fulfil all their preferences within the same location, helping them explore cities more conveniently.

Global solution to local ideas

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 incorporates both our unique deals and existing member benefits in a way that’s easy to use and incredibly valuable”.

The app and its premium features are free for all users.

CEO, Randy Carpenter said: “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 favourite chain was two exits away.”

Unprecedented testimonials

The app has enjoyed rave reviews as prominent app reviewers describe it as the smartest map for a road user. It solves many common frustrations of existing navigation apps.
