The app is equipped with 'SOS Messaging' features that when activated, instantly sends message with the time and location to the emergency contacts of the user. The Okinawa Eco app also updates the rider/user with the condition of the electric scooter. The user can also set up alerts for speed, towing or even low battery with the app. The app also comes with the 'Geofence' feature which would intimate the user via app when the vehicle enters or leaves a geo-fence radius. Rider score feature on the application shares details on the driving pattern of the user like speeding, hard braking, harsh acceleration and turns events.
