General Questions
- Do you lose complete usage of your phone while this is plugged in? What about emergencies?
- Can someone else use your phone while it’s plugged in?
- How quickly will I know my driver’s location?
- Is the app easy to pause so the phone can be used?
- Is this easy to set-up and install?
Don’t worry, you won’t lose complete control of your phone while using NIX. You’re still able to take or make a phone call, ask Siri for directions and even navigate with Apple Maps, Google Maps, or Waze.
If you have a passenger in your car and they need to use your phone—no problem. Our app allows for driver and passenger modes to be enabled once you start your commute.
Our app will send you notifications constantly updating you on your driver’s whereabouts. As soon as the car is stopped, you’ll get a message alerting you as to when and where.
Our 60-second pause mode allows you to briefly use your phone while you’re driving. At a red light and need to check on something? You have a small window of time to read that screen!
Simply download the free app and plug the GoPoint NIX into your vehicle’s USB or power outlet. In moments you’ll be fully functioning and ready for your first usage!
