Who It's For
Drivers who want a speedometer they can read in half a glance, a gentle nudge when they go over their own limit, and a buddy that keeps an eye on fuel and fatigue.
Your iPhone drive buddy
Your speed.
Really big.
Drivehelp turns your iPhone into your car's smart screen: a Google map with live-traffic turn-by-turn, a huge rainbow speedometer, and a windshield HUD, all in one. Set your own max speed and Emma tells you, kindly, when to ease off the gas. Ask it to plan your errands, and it'll even ask whether you got everything.

Quick Facts
The important stuff, up front
What Drivehelp is, what it needs, and what happens to your data.
Built for iPhone
A landscape iPhone app. Lay the phone on the dash for the windshield HUD, or mount it facing you. Drowsiness detection needs an iPhone with Face ID.
Works Without an Account
Speed, alerts, HUD, fuel range, gas station callouts, trips, safety features, saved places and routines all work with no account and no credits. The smart extras are optional.
Your Drive Data Stays on Your Phone
Your cars, fuel log, trips, places and routines are stored on your iPhone only. No analytics, no ads, no tracking. An account, needed only for credits, holds just your email, credits and billing records. Optional community features (road reports, talking with nearby drivers, traffic) are off until you turn them on, and don't need an account.
Drivehelp Packs (Optional)
One-time purchases through Apple, no subscription, and credits never expire. One pack covers the voice co-pilot, photo reading, natural voices, Google directions and "Take me somewhere". See packs →
Drive Responsibly
Drivehelp is an aid, not a substitute for paying attention. Obey posted limits, and set the app up before you drive.

Big, bold and colorful, so the information you need is there the moment you glance at it.

"Take Me Somewhere" Credits

Service & Tires
- Oil changes, rotations, brakes, filters, battery, inspection, registration: last done and next due
- Add your own reminders, one-time or repeating

- Time over your limit, hard braking and hard acceleration

- A one-line trip summary Credits
Stay Awake, Stay Safe
- Drowsiness detection with the Face ID camera when the phone faces you: eyes closed for about 1.5 seconds triggers a siren and "Wake up"
- Break reminders after 2 hours of driving and late at night
- Spoken check-ins in HUD mode
Drive Together Optional
- Report police, hazards, crashes and traffic jams by voice or tap
- Drivers passing are asked "Is it still there?", so old reports fade away

- Crowd traffic from anonymous shared speeds

"I Noticed You're Driving"
Start driving without opening the app and Drivehelp sends a notification to open it. Riding along instead? Tap I'm a passenger.
Voice Assistant Credits
- Ask about your speed, fuel, trips and spending
- Change settings by voice
- Plan multi-stop trips and get directions for each stop
Meet Emma
Alerts are spoken by Emma, a voice pre-recorded with the open-source Kokoro text-to-speech model. The audio is bundled in the app, so alerts work with no signal and no voice data leaves your phone.
Demo Drive
Try everything while parked. Demo mode simulates a drive so you can hear the alerts and see the colors change before you hit the road.
Siri & Shortcuts
"Start Drivehelp" and "Start HUD" work as Siri and Shortcuts actions, and Siri can tell you your speed, fuel, range and last trip without an account. "Ask Drivehelp" reaches the assistant Credits
Your Car, Your Buddy
- Give each car a name and a personality: "Princess is ready for you"
- An animated speedometer splash when you open the app
Connectors for Developers Credits
Connect your own service and the co-pilot can use it by voice, for example to order food. Calls go straight from your phone to your service, and you approve any change. Developer guide →
HUD Mode
Put your speed on the windshield.
Tap HUD, lay your iPhone flat on the dashboard, and Drivehelp flips into a mirrored display on pure black at full brightness. The glass reflects it right side up, close to your line of sight.
- Speed, fuel gauge and range, time and date
- Black background, so only the numbers reflect
- Spoken check-ins while you drive
- Works best at dusk and at night
Place the phone where it doesn't block your view and doesn't slide. Some places restrict items on the dashboard or windshield. Check your local laws.
Voice Assistant · Optional
Plan the whole errand run in one sentence.
With Drivehelp credits, ask about your speed, fuel, trips or gas spending, change settings, or plan a multi-stop trip by voice. It gives directions to each stop and waits until you've left one stop before moving on to the next.
AI answers can be wrong. Double-check anything important, and only talk to Drivehelp when it's safe and legal to do so.
YouTake me to Jake's house, then Walmart to buy noodles, then a gas station with no membership, then Home Depot, then home.
DrivehelpGot it, five stops. First up, Jake's house. Starting directions.
YouHow much did I spend on gas this month?
DrivehelpYou've spent $86 on gas this month across 3 fill-ups.

How It Works
Set up once. Then just drive.
Do this while parked. Drivehelp is designed so you don't need to touch it on the road.
1
Tell It About You
Enter your first name, pick your max speed and add your car. Allow location so Drivehelp can measure your speed.
2
Place Your Phone
Mount it facing you for the big speedometer and drowsiness detection, or lay it on the dash and tap HUD.
3
Drive
Emma speaks up if you go over your limit, when fuel gets low, and when it's time for a break. Trips record automatically.

FAQ
Questions we hear most often
Short answers. For setup guides and troubleshooting, visit Support.
Do I need an account?
Only for credits. Speed alerts, HUD, fuel, trips, safety features, saved places, routines and road reports work with no account. To buy Drivehelp Packs and use the AI, voice, places and directions features, sign in with Apple or Google.
Does Drivehelp know the speed limit?
No. You set your own max speed, and the alerts are based on that. Always follow posted limits. The 95 and 100 mph warnings are built in.
Do you collect my location or trips?
We don't keep your trips or location history: they stay on your iPhone. When you use a credit feature, the request (which can include your approximate location or route) passes through our server to Anthropic, OpenAI or Google, and our server doesn't store it. If you turn on community features, the locations of your reports and messages are deleted within hours to days. See the Privacy Policy.
Does the drowsiness camera record me?
No. It reads your eyelid positions in real time on the phone. No images or video are recorded, stored or sent anywhere.
Do alerts work when the screen is off or I'm in Maps?
Yes, as long as you allow location access while Drivehelp runs in the background. Choosing Always also lets it notice when a drive starts.
What's a credit?
Credits pay for Drivehelp's AI, voice, places and directions features. You buy them in packs through Apple. They never expire, have no cash value, and there's no subscription. More about packs.
