Accident Assist by KM Splatt & Associates is a useful, free tool offering a quick guide on what to do and, importantly, what information to capture when you are involved in a car accident, an accident at work or any other accident possibly involving injury to a person.

There are 3 separate quick checklists for your to follow along with. Each has been specifically tailored to a type of accident you may have been party to or involved in.

In addition to the accident checklists, there is a separate accident details log function allowing you to collect and note all the important particulars relating to the incident.

- Locate and record your position to give yourself (or those you want to share the information with) the option to later inspect the site using Maps
- Take photos of the incident and surrounds to create a visual aid for relaying what occurred
- Enter notes, details, the date and names of people involved (or witnesses) while they are fresh in you mind

And you only ever have to enter your personal and insurance information once with the app's handy pre-population feature.

Once you have completed the simple, step-by-step accident details log you can email it to yourself, someone else who needs the information or to KM Splatt and Associates to get more certainty around your legal rights.

It's free and it's here to help - So go ahead download Accident Assist now and you have it on your iPhone or iPod just in case ... because you may never know when you might need it.
