A new app has been developed by transport body Delhi Integrated Multi-modal Transit Systems (DIMTS) lets commuters in Delhi hire an auto. Dubbed as PoochO , the Android app will enable users to locate autos, fitted with GPS, nearest to them. They will get the drivers contact information, which is registered with DIMTS and can call them to book a trip.

PoochO app offers services like  calculating estimated fare for a trip using Google maps. In addition, the app will provide traffic updates of one’s route and using Google maps to check out alternative routes. A user can send their travel details of Facebook and Twitter in order to inform you friends and family about your location thereby increasing your security. Users can also find out the estimated travel distance and time to reach the destination using the app.

The app connects with over 24,000 autos in Delhi, which are fitted with GPS and plans to add more in near future. The free app is available on the Google Play Store and will be launched on iOS soon.
