The phone apps: Waink, BuckMe, RydeMe and Snapmatic
The GTA VI phone packs apps with real functions: Waink to scan cars before stealing them, BuckMe for banking, RydeMe to get around and Snapmatic as a living social network.
The phone in GTA VI is much more than a menu: its apps have concrete playable functions, according to what was shown in the Extended Look and the preview sessions.
- Waink scans vehicles before you steal them and shows their security level, the tools required, tracker level, registration costs and even the resale value.
- BuckMe is the banking app: it manages your balance, which stays safe unlike cash, which is lost if you die or get arrested.
- RydeMe is the Uber equivalent for getting around Leonida, alongside buses, trains and taxis; stay in the vehicle and you can have full conversations.
- Snapmatic works as an integrated social network: follow accounts, scroll through content and discover NPC events you can travel to in real time.
All four apps reinforce the same idea behind the game: a world that reacts to what you do, from the money you keep to the cars you eye up before stealing.
