EnLighten

Using real-time signal information and position information from GPS and cell signals, EnLighten notices when drivers stop at a red light. It then uses Connected Signals' proprietary technology to predict when that light will change. If it can predict, it tells them. Then, just before the light turns green, a chime warns the driver to get ready.

EnLighten currently works in selected cities which can be seen at:

More cities are being added as quickly as possible.

Knowing how much time is available can keep drivers from starting distracting tasks shortly before a light changes and they need to drive. The chime that sounds shortly before the light changes also helps avoid situations where a car darts into an intersection after being honked at by another driver.

Please be aware that continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life. EnLighten minimizes use of GPS when you are not actively driving, or when you are not in a covered area.

Huh?
Sold on groupon

I don’t really understand. There are no instructions. Sometimes I see red and green in the speedometer but it’s not clear what that means.

CarPlay app needed

Works great in PHX, AZ area. A CarPlay app would make it perfect.

Out of coverage area..

Doesn’t even work, no matter where I am. Junk..

Bad direction we are headed in

How about we start looking at the light instead?

Cool app but doesn’t work in New York City ..

I’m very disappointed. They should update this app and include more cities and more coverage

Great idea!

I'm out of area(Houston), but the idea alone is worth 5 stars. Feature request: Green light prediction, so I can time lights. (Audi recently announced this for their new cars). Was wishing for an app as soon as I heard about it.

Great concept but bad execution

App does not work even on supposed covered area. GPS is active even when app is in background. Deleted

Didn't work?

I just went driving through provo, one of the alleged "covered cities" and the app still says I'm out of range. #wtheck

Cool idea, hasn't worked for me.

Running this on a 4S for a couple days and it has yet to work for me. Nothing happens at any of the lights I've stopped at.

Doesn't work right

Interesting idea, but it never worked for me. It would start counting down at a red light, but them with about 5 sec left the countdown would disappear and it would just show a red circle with a car in the middle. Never had a chime to let me know the light was about to turn green. Also, it allows your phone to auto lock, then rendering the app useless. If I have to keep paying attention to my phone so that it doesn't auto lock then that defeats the entire purpose of the app.
