Book Auto ride in Delhi with PoochO app

If you live in Delhi and are sick and tired of waiting for an auto especially during peak hours or late in night then PoochO app will be very useful. Launched by Lt. Governor Najeeb Jung, the PoochO app allows people to access the Delhi Integrated Multi Model Transit System (DIMTS) of registered driver’s mobile numbers and then call them up to book a ride. It is a relief for everyone and especially women who work until late nights in corporate and then commute via rickshaw.

DIMTS sanctioned the development of the smartphone application, which lets users find GPS-fitted autos passing nearby. This app offers users the option of sharing their travel details on Facebook and Twitter. It would be safety measure for everyone. User need to make sure that phone has GPS and leave it turned on in order to use the app. About 24000 autos in Delhi are equipped with GPS and this means that the tool has potential to be very handy to a large number of users.

PoochO app can be downloaded on only Android Phones from Google Play. User can also give their feedback on their travel in Auto Rickshaw. User can also calculate estimate fare for their trip and even track the auto to check if it is coming towards them or not after calling its drivers. This app will soon be available on iPhone too.

The best thing about this app is if a driver refuses to pick up a PoochO user for no reason will face with strict action. Application will help drivers to get passengers more easily. Traffic police will be asked to connect this app with their website, their traffic app because if a driver refuses to pick up then he will be penalized heavily. Authorities are planning to implement this app in Mumbai also as Traffic condition in Mumbai is pathetic.
