What is text-STAR?
text-STAR is a groundbreaking road safety advancement in the fight back against Distracted Driving. text-STAR is arming drivers with valuable insight reflecting a driver’s safe handling of mobile technology. Drivers can now get a text-STAR score reflective of safe driving habits thru distracted driving avoidance.
What is a text-STAR score?
A text-STAR score is the result of the assessment of mobile technology use while driving. This provides a driver specific personalized score.
How does text-STAR work?
Text-STAR helps you avoid distracted driving as your digital personal assistant while scoring you on the use of your phone while in motion. This data is utilized by text-STAR to formulate a driver specific profile and score. The text-STAR Report contains a text-STAR Score with a breakdown of the driver’s performance profile. The result is a new level of insight which drivers can utilize as a measuring stick to improve upon. Once you develop a good score contact your insurance carrier directly (not the agent) and ask if they participate in a text-STAR's Preferred Carrier Network for a possible discount.
Why the need of a text-STAR score?
In order to overcome distracted driving related deaths and injuries taking place on our roads, text-STAR's PLATFORM of CHANGE allows for the opportunity to identify and reduce unacceptable risk for all drivers. Insight provided by text-STAR’s driver specific profile is a major benefit for everyone. Just one safer driver means a safer road for many.
Good text-STAR scores serve as a useful tool in demonstrating to insurance carriers that safe driving without the distraction of mobile technology is possible. This would in turn help curb increasing premiums from the current high cost of claims that result from distracted driving.
Parents of teen drivers can now gain the peace of mind that only comes from knowing! Parents who use text-STAR will gain a priceless opportunity to address and correct distraction driving problems before the unthinkable becomes a reality.
Our motivation is to improve safety on our roadways to make a difference and save lives!
Modes
Auto Engage: The best and mode to use text-STAR is in the automatic mode which auto engages your Personal Texting Assistant upon detecting motion above 10mph.
Manual: You control when text-STAR is on, letting you send auto replies when you're on the move or just need some space.
Passenger: For those times when you're not a driver. Get through the passenger verification process and use your phone as you normally would. Only allowed in motion via verification of being a passenger.
Customizable replies to fit your personality.
Scheduler
Most of us have activities we simply tend to repeat. The scheduler allows text-STAR to automatically reply to SMS and MMS messages you receive during those pre-selected times.
NOTE: GO SMS blocks other apps from determining that the user has received a text message, in effect disabling other apps' ability to react to incoming SMS and MMS messages. If you have GO SMS installed and still experience a problem with text-STAR not auto responding, you'll need to un-check the "Disable other message notification" feature of GO SMS (found in Settings, Advanced tab, Receive Settings). You can also uninstall Go SMS to solve the problem.

This app did what it promises to do, but it also made my GPS go haywire, trying to find my position every few seconds, even when off in manual mode, EVEN WITH MY PHONE IN AIRPLANE MODE. This was a huge drain on my battery. This was as a deal breaker. U

Great idea and well done. I am uninstalling however due to the constant nagging to turn on GPS. I don't leave my GPS on when I'm not travelling and being prompted to do so every few min is more irritating and an unnecessary battery drain.

I turn off applications to conserve energy like the GPS function when I am in the house or at work. The program reminds me every ten minutes that GPS is not engaged. Even when I turned the program off, it still chimed every ten minutes. That too, drained

Great idea! Keep the roads safer, get a insurance discount, help rates to drop, stay alive longer. Smart thinking.

The app performs as advertised. In fully automatic mode, it engages while I'm driving and let's my friends know I can't reply to their texts. If I'm busy I can simply engage Manual mode then select a response and the app does its magic. A very useful app.
