Seamless Navigation:

The most important thing for a long trip is navigation. Accurate navigation will ensure that you will never get lost, no matter how far away your destination is. Help your long road trips go more smoothly with real-time traffic updates, accurate maps, and intuitive route planning.

Transcend Car Box can install navigation software such as Google Maps and Waze.

Google Maps, one of the most popular navigation software, provides you with route options and an accurate estimate of how long it will take to get from your starting point to your destination. Additionally, you can plot multiple waypoints along your route of your choice - whether it's a coffee stop for a quick break or a highly-rated overnight hotel.

Waze is also one of the commonly used navigation software. The most advantage of Waze is that it can help you avoid traffic jams, construction, etc. through real-time updates. This application will let you know the changes in the navigation route in real time and change the route more proactively, allowing you to get to know the streets of a city like a local.

 

Entertainment on the Go:

Being on the road for long periods of time can get boring, but the Transcend Car Box turns your vehicle into an entertainment center. Plug the Transcend Car Box into your car's USB port and enjoy your favorite music, podcasts and even movies, making the journey as enjoyable as the destination.

It supports a large number of streaming applications, such as Netflix, Disney+, HBO Max, etc. When you feel tired after driving and need to stop the car to rest, turn on a favorite movie or TV series, drink a cup of coffee, and eat some snacks. This will be such a pleasant rest time.

Don’t be limited to the small screen of your phone, make full use of your car’s display.

 

Communication and Connectivity:

Staying connected while on the road is crucial, whether it's for coordinating with fellow travelers, checking in with loved ones, or accessing important information.

Transcend Car Box supports wireless CarPlay and wireless Android auto. You can get in touch with your family and friends at any time through CarPlay's built-in phone calls, messaging functions, and WhatsApp instant messaging software.

In addition, if you don't want to use wireless CarPlay or wireless Android auto, you can also connect your mobile phone's Bluetooth to the Transcend Car Box system's Bluetooth, so that you can make and answer calls, collect and send messages, etc, which is similar to what you usually do in CarPlay.

 

Efficiency and Convenience:

Since long road trips often take place on highways at 70 mph, it becomes difficult to stop for road trip snacks, drive-thru lattes, or use public restrooms along the way.

You can install iExit Interstate Exit Guide on your Transcend Car Box, this app can help you eliminate all uncertainty. The app maps the exits on your route and includes services offered at each exit, such as food, accommodation, fuel and even hospitals. This will be a great help in your travel planning. Even better, it even provides Yelp reviews of these businesses to help you filter out the best ones.

Meanwhile, The Dyrt is a great app if you want to go camping on your trip. You can mount the Dyrt on your Transcend Car Box, and it can help you find tent, RV, and cabin sites across the United States. The app has over a million users who submit reviews and pictures of campsites, as well as tips for a better camping experience. Dyrt can even reserve campsites in advance.

Finally, whether you have a gas vehicle or an electric vehicle, you need to replenish energy in time. At this time, it becomes very important to be able to find a place to refuel and charge in time.

For gas cars, installing a GasBuddy on the Transcend Car Box is absolutely perfect.

Paying for fuel can take up the lion's share of your budget for a long road trip, so using GasBuddy can save you some money.

The app provides the latest fuel prices at more than 150,000 gas stations across the United States and Canada. It will also tell you how recent the submission is, letting you know whether this oil price has expired.

If you want to take a break, it's also possible to find the nearest parking lot. One application contains multiple requirements, so you don't need to open multiple applications repeatedly, saving you time.

 

If you drive an electric vehicle, you can install a PlugShare.

Electric vehicles are becoming increasingly common and are ideal for greener road travel. But the biggest problem is often finding a charging station, because most electric cars can only travel about 300 kilometers, and they need to find a charging station before they run out of power.

PlugShare claims to be the most popular charging station finder in the world because it lists 610,000 charging stations in North America and Europe. With so much charging station information, it does provide users with great convenience. Not only that, but it also allows users to share reviews of the stations they’ve used, helping guide EV drivers to the best, fastest, and most reliable stations.
