Description

From the listing uploaded by “appupdater”.

The AA app is the fastest way to request roadside rescue. The ‘Rescue Me’ feature allows AA Members to seek out help and track their AA patrol. The patrol will then be able to use the Member’s exact coordinates to locate the broken-down vehicle and get there faster. We want to give our Members a little something extra, just to say thanks. The ‘Rewards’ feature in the app displays all the latest offers & discounts for our customers. These include 3c off per litre at selected Circle K garages nationwide. You can also use the app to plan your journey and see live traffic updates with the ‘Roadwatch’ feature. Our AA Membership cards are now digital and can be found on the AA App, so you have it with you everywhere you go.
