About this app

Ride Watch Driver is the official app for school bus drivers to share their real-time location with parents and guardians.

KEY FEATURES

• Real-Time Location Sharing
Start your route with one tap and automatically share your bus location with parents tracking your route.

• Easy Route Selection
View all routes assigned to you by your school administrator. Select your route and start driving.

• Multi-School Support
Drivers assigned to multiple schools can easily switch between them and access all assigned routes.

• Privacy-Focused
Your location is NEVER tracked when you're not actively running a route. Tracking starts only when you tap "Start Route" and stops immediately when you tap "Stop Route."

• Screen Stays On
The app keeps your screen awake during active routes so you can always see the map.

• Live Map View
See your current position on an interactive map with a custom bus marker that follows your location as you drive.

HOW IT WORKS
