Every child, every stop, accounted for.

NavKids tracks every school bus live, records who boarded and who received each child at drop-off, and puts emergencies in front of a named person, even when the signal drops.

What NavKids does

Built for the school run as it really is

Low-end phones, patchy coverage, early mornings and a transport office that needs answers now.

  • Live bus tracking

    Every running bus on one map, with problems first: emergencies, buses that have gone silent, and buses running late.

  • Attendance at every stop

    The co-driver ticks each child on and off. The school sees who boarded, who was absent, and which parent received each child at drop-off.

  • Emergencies, answered

    One tap raises an emergency. The school is texted and alerted on screen, and a named person acknowledges it on the record.

  • Works without signal

    The driver app keeps every pickup and GPS point while offline and sends them when coverage returns, with nothing lost or duplicated.

  • A console for the transport office

    Routes on a map, students and guardians, assignments, trip replay, reports and a full audit log, in one browser tab.

  • Parents in the loop Coming soon

    A parent app and SMS updates: where the bus is, when their child boarded, and who received them at home.

How it works

One trip, three views of the truth

  1. The driver starts the run

    The driver and co-driver sign in on an Android phone. The app shows today’s morning, afternoon and evening runs, and the bus reports its position every few seconds. Get the app

  2. Every stop is recorded

    At each stop the co-driver ticks children on, or marks them absent. On the way home, each child is dropped at their stop and handed to a parent.

  3. The school sees it live

    The transport office watches every bus, gets alerted the moment something is wrong, and can replay any trip from the term.

For schools

Set up in an afternoon, trusted every morning

  • Import your students from a spreadsheet. NavKids checks every row before anything is saved.
  • Draw routes and stops on a map; past trips keep the route they actually drove.
  • Invite drivers by SMS. They set their own password; the school never sees it.
  • Each school sees only its own data, and every view of a child’s record is logged.
  • Runs on the phones your drivers already have.
