Bounce is an upcoming mobile app that uses Google Now-style notifications for appointments by monitoring traffic conditions in real-time to let you know when to leave. It also adds in a customizable buffer for all that extra time like walking to the car or finding your keys. An Android prototype has already notched more than 12,000 downloads and is getting some pretty enthusiastic reviews, and the company has now kicked off a crowdfunding project to raise money for the iPhone version. The team says they’ll make the app when they hit 5,000 $5 backers and they’re aiming to release it by mid 2013. Backing the project will guarantee a copy of the app, which will cost $5 a month when it goes on sale. (via Bounce wants to help you and your loved ones be on time - The Next Web)
