You’re able to define your vehicle’s miles per gallon and the cost of gas for your trip. Then just hit the big green “Start” button and head out on your journey. The app will track your distance traveled and provide you with a breakdown of how many gallons of gas were consumed, your miles traveled, and your total cost. You’re then able to export the data as a CSV file or send it off to Google Drive. The app also includes the ability to manually enter data, metric support, tax rates, and graphs and analytical breakdowns of your trips.

Swipe your finger across the meter to set the timer. You're able to attach a handwritten note, photo, and voice memo to help you remember where you parked.

Honk also features multiple background images to choose from, customizable meter maximums and alarm times, and a full tutorial.

The app is able to provide you with an hourly UV forecast for your current location. The UV index is represented on a color-coded and numbered meter.

All of the information is provided by Weather Underground, so you can be sure it’s accurate and up to date.

The app’s unique and intuitive UI allows you to quickly narrow down destination categories. All you have to do is slide your finger around the wheel and you’ll see each category’s title in the middle. Release your finger to select a category. You’re then able to view an alphabetical list of all of your possible destinations. You’re able to view destinations by their proximity, or you can see them all on a map. Mark your favorite destinations for quick access later on and they will be synced across all of your iDevices via iCloud. The app includes more than 700 customizable categories, 2,220 brands, thousands of points of interest, and a randomizer in case you’re feeling adventurous.
