As the number of consumers turning to their smartphones continues to rise, Travelers has announced the launch of its first mobile applications, Auto Accident Help for iPhone and Quick Connect for BlackBerry smartphones. Both applications are free for anyone to download. Auto Accident Help is available at the iTunes store, and Quick Connect is available on Travelers.com.

The new mobile tools provide auto accident assistance for iPhone and BlackBerry users. Additionally, Travelers customers will have the advantage of starting the auto claim process directly through the iPhone application and the mobile Web site.

"Immediately after an accident, it is natural to feel unsure about what steps to take and we want to be there to help guide people through the process," says Patrick Gee, senior vice president for Travelers personal insurance claims. "Our new mobile applications allow us to do so by helping consumers with the necessary and important steps after an auto accident."
