The Connecticut Department of Motor Vehicles recently launched an app for phones and tablets to give customers access to essential DMV information and practice test questions. The app DMV Mobile can be downloaded for free from the iTunes and Google Play stores.
The purpose of the app is to upgrade the “antiquated technology and systems that have been in place at the agency for too long,” Gov. Dannel Malloy said in a statement. It is the agency’s first step into the mobile device space to reach a larger segment of its customers, especially the younger generation who depend on phones and tablets for information, Malloy said.
With the app, users can find information including driving directions and wait times for DMV locations. The app also offers test questions and answers for learner’s permit exams and a quiz for parents to help them guide teenage drivers.
DMV Mobile was developed by Connecticut Interactive LLC, which builds interactive government services for the state. It has a contract with the state Department of Administrative Services to develop electronic-based services.
