RoadworksLane closures, diggers and temporary lights.

How reports stay honest
Other drivers help keep reports current.
Someone reports it. Two taps on big buttons, made to be safe on the road.
A brand-new account's report shows as unconfirmed until another, established driver taps Still there.
Not there can shorten a report or take it off the map. Old reports fade from the map on their own, so it stays current.

On two wheels, pick how you carry the phone
Screen off, alerts in your earphones. Fewer spoken alerts so you're not flooded, and turn-by-turn speech only if you switch it on.
Phone on the handlebars. Larger labels and buttons, and menus lock while you're moving so nothing pulls your eyes off the road.
Alerts, your way
Hear what matters, skip what doesn't.
You choose which alerts you get, and which ones speak.
- Pick your hazards. For each kind of report, choose whether it shows on the map and whether it alerts you.
- Caution zones. Playgrounds, horse areas, sharp bends and Railway Trail crossings show on the map as you get close. Turn on Speak this for any you want to hear.
- School zones are spoken in school hours on school days.
- Speed cameras speak up only if you're over the limit.
- Alert chimes. A short, soft chime before each spoken alert tells you what kind it is.
- Phone calls. Voice goes quiet. A single chime marks an accident, flooding, a closed road or a fire.
- Keep screen on. Always while open, only while charging, or off.
Make it yours
Drive as a longtail.

- Live hazard reports from other drivers: accidents, flooding, roadworks, potholes, animals on the road, and more. Report in two taps.
- Spoken and on-screen alerts for hazards on your road, school zones at school times and active speed cameras, with Railway Trail crossings on the map.

Yes. Choose Motorbike or scooter in Settings, then Navigation, and you get the rider layout. Pick In your pocket or On a mount for how you carry the phone.

A report from a brand-new account shows as unconfirmed until another, established driver taps Still there. Not there answers can shorten a report or take it off the map, and old reports fade from the map on their own.
