Aha combines all things you need while driving in one smartphone app. It offers entertainment; location based information and even keeps you connected with your Facebook and Twitter feeds. As Aha is made to create the least driver distraction, therefore messages will be read out by a text-to-speech engine. The location based services are bundled in dedicated channels. Those are at present: Hotels, Hungry, and Weather. Once a channel is selected, information related to the present location is read out by a clear, easy to understand text-to-speech voice. On the entertainment side, there is a vast array of choices. Aha provides a choice of own music channels of different genres, news channels and podcasts of all kinds. Moreover SHOUTcast Radio is supported, offering thousands of free Internet radio stations from DJs and broadcasters around the world.
