About this app

Your new buddy for your daily commute !

Bobby - Your commuting buddy allows you to automate tasks related to your commutes and execute them to the right place and the right moment without any interaction on your part!

With Bobby - Your commuting buddy traveling by car is safer because you won’t need to use your phone while driving to send SMS!

This also means more fluid journeys, as Bobby brings you the information you want exactly at the right time. No more searching in your other transport applications.

Indeed, with Bobby - Your commuting buddy you can automate the reception of SMS when any of these services become available:

The next passages of Bordeaux trams and buses

The VCUB bicycles

Places in the PARCUB parking lot

For its launching, Bobby will be fully functional in the city of Bordeaux thanks to the use of the OPEN DATA portal http://data.bordeaux-metropole.fr/

After the TBC/TBM network of Bordeaux, the next cities covered by Bobby will be Toulouse and the Tisséo network!

Bobby - Mobility Assistant will be useful to everyone by sending automatic SMS and mails!

Let’s say you are used to send an SMS to prevent someone every time you go to a particular place, well now you can schedule it with Bobby! The app’ will send it at the right moment.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Once Booby is downloaded you choose:

1 - One task among : Bus, Tram, Metro, Bike, Parking, SMS, Mail

2 - The place where you want this task to take place

3 - The period during which the task is active

4 - For automation of SMS and mails, just type the message

Then there’s nothing left to do!

Bobby will perform the tasks at the right moments and will alert you by sending notifications and voice messages.

Indeed, for an SMS or a Mail, a notification will confirm it was sent.

For tasks concerning Tram, Buses, Bikes and Parkings, Bobby will send you the requested geo-located informations.

You’ll be able to consult the information through a notification, from your Bobby app’, and eventually from your Android Wear Watch!

Bobby uses Android’s geofencing system, however it doesn’t collect any personal information. The app’ will send you the information you need without having to know your favorite places, nor your personal data. YOU will decide the information you need and when you need it!
