5 Smartphone Apps That Can Help You Track Blood Alcohol Content

Posted on Mar 11, 2019 9:41am PDT

A DUI is a criminal offense that refers to operating a motor vehicle while one's blood alcohol content is above the legal limit that is deemed too dangerous for someone to drive safely.

In Tennessee, the legal BAC limit is 0.08 percent. If you are charged with a DUI, a first-time offense is punishable up to one year in jail. In specific circumstances. If a DUI is classified as a felony, jail sentences for several years are not uncommon. In many situations of DUIs, you may need an experienced criminal defense attorney to negotiate and represent you on your behalf.

DUI charges and even arrests can bring a lot of negative consequences into your life, but technology can allow you to prevent a tragedy. Here are five smartphone applications that can help you measure your blood alcohol content.

1. Alcohoot

Alcohoot will transform your smartphone into a breathalyzer. This plugs into your smartphone's headphone jack and utilizes an FDA-approved fuel cell sensor, which is the same technology cops use at DUI checkpoints. It also provides additional information that can help you understand how much alcohol is in your bloodstream based on what you drank.

2. IntelliDrink

The IntelliDrink app operates as a BAC calculator. You input what you drink as you do, and it will track your BAC on a graph and estimates what time you will be sober again. You can also add a reminder as to when you have reached a specific BAC. You will have a better idea on how to control your drinking, and you will be able to avoid getting into a car before your BAC reaches dangerous levels.

3. R-U-Buzzed? BAC Calculator

This is another BAC calculator that will measure your BAC based on weight, gender and the amount of alcohol that you consumed. If your estimate ends up being over the legal limit, the words "you're buzzed" will appear. There is also a nifty GPS feature that will help you find a ride home safely.

4. Guardian Interlock

If drunk driving is a serious problem of yours, Guardian Interlock may be your best option, as the interlock system involves a breathalyzer that is attached to your ignition. You will not be able to start your car unless you are legally sober.

5. Frank M. Edison’s Craft Beer BAC Calculator

While this is another BAC calculator, this calculator is unique because it considers the exact kind of beer that you are drinking with its search tool. Any craft beer you can think of is in the database. Input your gender, weight and how many hours you have been drinking, and your estimate will be ready.

Utilize some of these apps in order to calculate your BAC content, and you can take a big step to stay out of trouble with the law. Otherwise, you may need to hire a criminal defense attorney as a result.
