As of April 2009, Nationwide allows drivers to document an accident and submit a claim via mobile. Once a driver starts the app and indicates that an accident has occurred, he or she can choose to contact local authorities and emergency services. A series of prompts allows drivers to take pictures of the damage at the accident scene, enter license plate numbers and insurance information, and record the exact scene of the accident using the iPhone’s built in GPS. There’s even a “flashlight” function for late-night wrecks. The app isn’t limited to Nationwide customers, but those who are get to contact their agent and a tow truck, and can start the claims process as soon as the necessary information is collected.
