CT DMV Mobile exceeds 115,000 downloads
In September 2014, the Connecticut Department of Motor Vehicles
and Connecticut Interactive launched the CT DMV Mobile application,
providing Connecticut residents with access to important DMV
information. The mobile application has reached 115,000 downloads
since its launch.
The free mobile application displays the services and office
hours for each of the 17 DMV and 15 AAA locations across the state.
CT DMV Mobile allows users to conveniently check DMV wait times
from their tablets and mobile phones. The application also features
three practice knowledge tests and a parent quiz, both popular DMV
study aids to help prepare all applicants for a learner's permit
test and to give parents of teens needed safety information for
their young drivers.
“This moble app for tablets and smartphones continues to grow,
and surpassing the 115,000 benchmark shows how valuable our
customers find it,” said DMV Commissioner Andres Ayala, Jr.
Since the initial launch of the application a year ago, DMV has
added a Spanish version of the practice knowledge tests and parent
quiz. Users are now given the choice of taking their practice tests
in either English or Spanish. This enhancement to the application
is part of the DMV's broad reach to multicultural audiences
throughout the state. In Connecticut, residents speaking Spanish
comprise the largest segment of second-language households,
according to the U.S. Census Bureau.
“DMV Mobile is a very important application offering for the
state of Connecticut’s DMV customers,” said Paul VandenBussche,
General Manager of Connecticut Interactive, which developed the
app. “We’re continually making efforts to improve from it’s initial
success and make the service more efficient for users in the
future.”
69,777 of CT DMV Mobile’s 115,025 total downloads were
downloaded on Apple devices, while another 45,248 were downloaded
on Android devices.
CT DMV Mobile is free to download from the iTunes Apple Store
and Google Play on Apple and Android devices, respectively. The
application can also be downloaded through the DMV website at
ct.gov/dmv/apps.
