Aviate from Yahoo..

Recently, I had been to Demo & Drinks session by Yahoo. Must say this was better and more informative than the last edition of the same. What what caught my eye was The Yahoo Aviate. So I write more about the Yahoo Aviate here in the blog.

Yahoo Aviate simplifies everything about your android phone. It starts with a clean, new layout and apps automatically organized for you. But it’s not just about making your phone simpler - Aviate also makes your phone smarter by offering intelligent information throughout your day. Whether you’re on the go, at work, at a restaurant or just relaxing at home, Aviate automatically shows you apps and information that are useful to you based on what you’re up to.

Think about how much your phone understands about you -- your location, your contacts, your calendar, your emails. And now, imagine what happens when that context becomes part of your mobile experience. Imagine that your phone could deliver the right experience to you at the right time, instead of you having to search for it. What if your phone suggested music and map apps when you got in the car? Or fitness apps when you get to the gym or go for a run?

Yahoo Aviate does just that -- automatically organizing your apps based on contextual clues, and pulling up relevant apps or suggesting new ones based on your location, the time of day, and what you’re up to -- bringing you what you need, when you need it.

  Running late to a meeting? Email all the attendees with one tap to let them know. 
  
  On your way to work? Aviate will estimate commute time, taking traffic into consideration. Heading out to dinner with friends? Aviate makes it simple to call an Uber to get there.

More Daily Habits:   

• One-swipe access to daily habits like your alarm clock, weather, a daily news summary, and a curated Flickr image of the day that you can set as your background.

Instead of just giving you a snapshot of the day’s weather, Aviate will alert you if today is cooler or warmer than yesterday, or if it’s more likely to rain or snow. 

• Track your sleep feature

Yahoo Aviate isn’t just an app; it’s the homebase for your entire mobile experience. It’s the last thing you touch at night and the first thing you touch when you wake up in the morning. It’s a brand new experience, so give Yahoo Aviate at least a week to see if it can change the way you interact with your phone
