Live journey safety

Travel watched.
Family at ease.

Sway keeps an eye on every long-distance trip. Your family follows your journey from a simple link, no app, no account, and the moment you go silent or press SOS, they're armed with your location and exactly who to call.

All good

A long trip shouldn't mean hours of silence.

On interstate roads, families are left guessing, no word for hours, no way to know where someone is, and no plan if something goes wrong. Sway turns that anxious silence into a live, shared view of the journey, with the safety set up before the bus even leaves.

How it works

Four taps from boarding to home.

1

Register

Before you board, log the trip: route, operator, plate, expected arrival, a family contact, and a 4-digit PIN.

2

Start & share

Tap Start when you board and send the link. Your family watches your trip move on a live map.

3

Check in

Tap “All good” every 30–90 minutes. Each tap drops a location breadcrumb and resets the timer.

4

Arrive

Tap “Arrived safely.” Your family sees the confirmation and monitoring stops. Home safe.

Always one of three

The alarm that doesn't cry wolf.

Sway only raises the alarm when a check-in is missed and the phone has gone silent on location for 20 minutes, so a busy traveler with GPS never triggers a false alarm, but a real disappearance always does.

Healthy

🟢 On the move

Checking in normally. The family map shows a calm green trail and a countdown to the next check-in.

Alert

🔴 Gone quiet

Missed check-ins and no GPS for 20+ minutes. The page turns red with the last location and a tap-to-call list, automatically.

SOS

🆘 Called for help

The traveler pressed and held SOS. A louder red page puts Call Traveler and Emergency 112 at the very top. Sends even with no signal.

For families

Just a link. No app, no account.

Open the link on any phone and watch the journey in real time, the traveler's name, the operator, the plate (and photo), a live map, and a countdown.

  • See exactly where they are, updated live.
  • If it turns red, one tap calls the traveler, the operator, FRSC 122, or Emergency 112.
  • An SOS that's stood down still shows “raised then cleared”, it never silently vanishes.

Private by design

Safety you can trust.

🔒 Your PIN, hidden

The stand-down PIN is scrambled, never stored in plain text, never shown to anyone.

🔗 One trip, one link

The family link is unguessable, reveals only that one trip, and expires after arrival.

📍 Foreground only

Location is captured at start, each check-in, and SOS, never tracked silently in the background.

🛡️ Locked down

Access is enforced on the server, not just the app, your data can't be reached by anyone it isn't for.
