Addressing Local Travel Needs on a Global Scale through Nexit Navigational Mapping Solution
After redefining road travel in the United States since 2019, Nexit, the innovative navigational mapping app, has now expanded its reach to a global audience with a launch on Android and iOS platforms. Built to offer a fully customisable travel experience, Precious Ugwuzor writes that Nexit provides a solution to many challenges faced by road users worldwide by addressing local travel needs on a global scale
“We’re thrilled to offer a global solution to local ideas that incorporates both our unique deals and existing member benefits in a way that’s easy to use and incredibly valuable.” Those were the words of an excited Dr. Vincent Ebuh, the founder of Nexit, after the app’s global launch, which he said has the potential to address local travel needs on a global scale.
Nexit Navigational Mapping Solution
After revolutionising travel experiences for American road users since its inception in 2019, Nexit, the groundbreaking navigational mobile mapping solution, has now been launched globally on Android and iOS platforms. Responding to the growing demand for an intuitive road-trip solution in Africa and beyond, Nexit promises to deliver an unparalleled travel experience tailored to the needs of modern road users.
With its unique features and user-centric design, the app promises to transform road travel for African users who have long desired a more efficient, intuitive, and personalised navigation tool. Backed by cutting-edge technology and strategic partnerships, Nexit enters the global market poised to rival established mapping giants like Google and Apple Maps.
The app’s entry into the global market is timely, as many road users across Africa have long sought a navigational tool that offers more than basic mapping functions. Nexit’s advanced customisation features and innovative approach could potentially set new standards in the navigation industry.
Speaking about the app’s global launch, Nexit’s CEO, Mr Randy Carpenter, noted that the app’s development was guided by an in-depth understanding of mapping resources and travel needs. “The brains behind the app went into the critical details of mapping resources, to provide landmark technology blueprints that sit mobile maps at the core base of today’s travel needs,” he explained.
A New Alternative to Traditional Mapping Apps
Designed as a superior alternative to existing navigation giants such as Google Maps and Apple Maps, Nexit brings a unique blend of features that enhance road travel in ways that its competitors do not. Users can perform multiple search inquiries simultaneously at each exit and view upcoming exits as they drive. This real-time customisation allows users to plan their trips with remarkable precision, ensuring they only encounter services and destinations that fit their preferences.
In Mr Carpenter’s words, “Nexit is the world’s first fully customisable navigation app designed for the ultimate travel experience.” By offering users the ability to filter search results based on personal needs—such as preferred dining options, accommodation, or fuel stations—Nexit transforms the driving experience into a seamless and enjoyable journey.
A Disruptive Force in the Navigation Market
Described by some as a disruptive force in the navigational app market, Nexit was built to address key pain points that traditional mapping solutions have overlooked. Unlike other apps that require users to search repeatedly for different services along their route, Nexit allows them to view all relevant services at each exit in one glance. This feature is particularly valuable for long-distance travellers and highway users who want to avoid unnecessary detours.
The app’s predictive capabilities also stand out. Nexit can anticipate where a user is heading and provide suggestions for services and amenities available at upcoming exits. This intuitive approach to navigation has earned the app comparisons to a personal highway-driving co-pilot. The app not only offers turn-by-turn voice and visual directions but also ensures that users only see places along their current route, preventing them from making unnecessary diversions.
A Unique Discovery for Highway Travellers
One of Nexit’s most praised features is its ability to deliver an all-in-one solution for highway travellers. While traditional navigation apps primarily focus on getting users from point A to point B, Nexit goes beyond by helping users plan their perfect road trip.
By integrating search functions with real-time navigation, the app allows users to find exactly what they need—whether it’s a specific type of restaurant, a petrol station with lower prices, or a hotel with preferred amenities—without straying too far from their route.
This innovative approach has led many to describe Nexit as more than just a mapping app; it’s a road manual designed to simplify travel planning. According to Mr Carpenter, “These innovations are only found in the Nexit mapping app.”
Pioneering Features
Nexit’s suite of pioneering features sets it apart from other navigation apps. Among its most notable innovations is its City Mode, which enables users to find multiple points of interest across various categories within a single search. This means that users can simultaneously search for restaurants, shopping centres, and entertainment options in a specific area, with results displayed directly on the map.
City Mode is particularly useful for urban explorers and tourists who want to make the most of their time in a new city. By providing a consolidated view of available services and attractions, the feature simplifies city navigation and enhances the user experience.
Another standout feature is TravelMatch, a coordinated stop-planning tool that allows users to schedule multiple stops along their route in a single trip. This feature is ideal for travellers who need to make strategic stops for fuel, meals, and rest without deviating from their planned path.
Maximising Savings Through Membership Benefits Integration
In addition to its customisable search functions and advanced navigation capabilities, Nexit offers a unique feature that integrates membership and loyalty benefits from well-known organisations such as AAA, AARP, Costco, and CVS. This feature helps users discover and utilise valuable perks associated with their memberships, which are often underused due to a lack of awareness.
Explaining the rationale behind this integration, the app’s developers noted that many members of these organisations fail to take full advantage of the benefits available to them. By incorporating these perks directly into the app, Nexit ensures that users can easily access discounts and savings while on the go.
Emphasising its potential to address local travel needs on a global scale, Dr. Ebuh also revealed that the company is actively seeking new partnerships with renowned brands to expand the app’s offerings and enhance its value to users.
With its ability to combine exclusive discounts with real-time navigation and customisable trip planning, Nexit is poised to become an indispensable tool for road users worldwide. The app’s developers are optimistic that its unique features will attract a broad user base, particularly in regions where traditional mapping solutions have fallen short.
As Nexit continues to expand its reach, the company’s leadership remains committed to refining the app’s features and forging strategic partnerships. By prioritising user feedback and staying attuned to emerging travel trends, Nexit aims to remain at the forefront of innovation in the navigation industry.
In a market dominated by established players, Nexit’s fresh approach and user-centric design offer a refreshing alternative. With its global launch, African road users, in particular, can look forward to a more convenient and enjoyable travel experience.
For now, Nexit stands as a testament to the power of innovation in addressing real-world problems. Whether it’s a family road trip, a business journey, or a daily commute, Nexit promises to be the ultimate companion for travellers seeking efficiency, convenience, and value on the road.
As Dr Ebuh succinctly put it, “By providing a platform globally that combines exclusive discounts with membership benefits, the app helps users maximise savings.” Indeed, with such a comprehensive suite of features, Nexit could very well become the go-to navigation app for road users across the globe.
