SAFECELLapp Pays You to Drive Safely with Your SmartphoneS

iPhone and Android: Smartphones are the latest horrible distraction in the car, whether you're texting or just trying to enter an address into its GPS. SAFECELLapp recognized this problem and designed a points-based program to let you earn prizes for driving safely.

SAFECELLapp simply tracks how many miles you've driven and rewards you one point per mile. Points buy you gift cards to popular retailers (like Amazon, Apple, Macy's, etc.). 500 points translate to $5 so it can take some time to earn your first reward, but if you've got a reasonably long commute every day you could rack up points pretty quick.

Answering a call will hurt your point earnings, but SAFECELLapp recognizes the need to make emergencies calls and will let you do so through a big emergency button. Although your GPS location is being tracked everywhere you go, SAFECELLapp ensures that you're the only one who has access to the details of your whereabouts.

SAFECELLapp costs a hefty $12 to get started, but the idea is that you'll earn it back in rewards through safe driving. It's available right now if you want to give it a try.
