Schools & nurseries
Parents see the school bus live and get a notification when it is near their stop. Fewer "where is the bus?" calls to your office.
One app · every vehicle · everyone on board
See every vehicle and everyone you care about, live.
School buses, college and staff transport, cabs and vans, logistics fleets and families on one live map, with arrival times and alerts. The driver's phone is the tracker, so there is no GPS hardware to buy or install.

Built for everyone on the move
Choose your account type when you sign up. The app uses the right words for you: students, employees, passengers or family members.
Colleges & universities
Students track their college bus and arrival time on their own phone, across every route and shift.
Companies & staff transport
Employees see their staff bus or cab live. Your admin team sees every vehicle on one map, and the routes each one drove in the past week.
Cabs, vans & individual drivers
Run your own van or cab service: add your passengers, share their codes, and let families follow the trip. Driver Pro takes you from 5 to 30 passengers.
Logistics & transport fleets
See every truck, van and bus live or parked, get alerted when a vehicle stops sending location, and check the routes it drove in the past week.
Families & private groups
Share your location with family, or with friends for 15 minutes, 1 hour or 8 hours. Sharing stops on its own, or whenever you turn it off.
Up and running in three steps
1
Add your vehicles
Create your account in the app, choose your account type and add each vehicle with its route.
2
Driver taps Start trip
The driver enters a 6-digit driver code once. Tracking runs with the screen off and stops when the trip ends.
3
Share a code
Give each parent, student, employee or passenger a 6-digit code. They follow the vehicle in the app or right here in the browser.
Everything you need, nothing to install in the vehicle
Live map
Every vehicle on one map: live while a trip runs, last known position when parked.
Arrival times & alerts
Arrival time to each pickup point, and a notification when the trip starts, when the vehicle is near, and when it ends.
No GPS hardware
The driver's Android phone is the tracker. No device, wiring, installation or SIM card to manage.
Trip routes
Pick any of a vehicle's 15 most recent trips to see the route it drove. Route lines are kept for 7 days, so older trips still show their times but no line.
Tracking-stopped alerts
If a driver's phone stops sending location mid-trip, the driver and your admins are told straight away.
Works in any browser
Parents and passengers don't need the app: they can enter their code at routenest.co.in.
Private by design
Location is shared only during a trip or while you choose to share. Each organization sees only its own data.
Activity log
A 30-day record of changes made by your admins: vehicles, people, codes and settings.
No ads, no data selling
We don't show ads or sell your data, and you can delete your account at any time.
