“Since the founding of our company our single mission has been to
harness the power of the latest technology to make government more
accessible for everyone,” said Robert
Knapp, NIC’s Chief Operating Officer. “We developed an election
results application when Palm Pilot devices were the latest technology
around 2000, then we followed a few years later with the first official
government apps for the iPhone and iPad, and now we are innovating to
see how new wearable technology can provide efficiencies in government
interactions.”
Gov2Go is the next generation of citizen-centric government from NIC’s
Arkansas portal. The Gov2Go
Apple Watch app serves as a citizen’s personal digital
government assistant that keeps track of government deadlines in a
personalized calendar, and sends relevant reminders. By entering some
simple information, the Gov2Go
Apple Watch app will send reminders for a variety of deadlines including
paying property taxes, renewing vehicle registration tags, and more.
Gov2Go launched originally as a mobile app in both the App Store and
Google Play, and is also available via the web at https://www.getgov2go.com/.
NIC plans to launch several additional government
apps for the Apple Watch in the coming weeks, including more from
its Arkansas subsidiary, as well as apps from NIC subsidiaries in Mississippi,
Maryland,
and Texas.
