The new app product which is chosen for providing relevant digital information to any person in some situation is Uber. This app helps in providing some real time information regarding traffic, any kind of delays in public and some of the transportation related issues. For providing this kind of information, it becomes easier for the users to make some well informed decisions regarding their daily communication. Not only this, the app is also expected to use some of the crowdsourced data for providing some of the up-to-date information. It is also important to be accurate as well.
