Footbus

MAKE HASSLE-FREE ARRANGEMENTS TO WALK, RUN OR RIDE TOGETHER WITH FOOTBUS!
EASILY PLAN AND SHARE YOUR ROUTES - Footbus lets you create routes in seconds and share them. Our app shows you when and where to meet, provides a route map, and lists your route members.
STAY UPDATED - Receive route invitations and choose to accept or decline, so everyone knows your plans. Cancel or adjust a route and everyone is notified. Leave a route and your name is automatically removed from the route members list.
STAY CONNECTED - With live route tracking and in-route messaging, Footbus provides all the information you need in one place.
CREATE A WALKING BUS OR A BIKE BUS - Footbus is perfect for regular routes to school, university, or work. You can switch travel modes to walk or cycle, with automatically adjusted estimated route times. You can create and share running routes too, for fitness with friends.
CUSTOMISE ROUTE VISIBILITY - Make your route private to share with friends, or public for anyone to join. Create a Footbus Community so everyone in it can see and join your community’s routes—ideal for larger organisations like student halls/colleges or workplaces.
CONVENIENT AND FLEXIBLE - Use Footbus to create instant routes to walk home safely with friends after dark, or plan ahead with repeating routes. No need to send multiple messages or scroll through group chats; Footbus lets you make plans, change plans, and stay updated.
USER-FRIENDLY AND FREE- Footbus offers all you need for walking, running, or cycling together in a clear and easy-to-use free app.
WE VALUE YOUR FEEDBACK - Please send comments, questions, or suggestions to [email protected], via the in-app hamburger menu, or leave us a review on the store.

COMMUNITIES
Easy to Create and Manage:
• Add members to your community from your in-app list or via a share link.
• Users can share community links, but only community admins can admit members.
• In larger communities, choose who can create routes.
• Easily manage communities through the dots next to a community member’s name.
• Create or join as many communities as you like.
ROUTES
Create, Share, and Manage Routes:
• Fill out the fields to create a route in seconds.
• Add route members as you create the route or send a share link once created.
• Route invitations display a route map, time, date, and details of who created it.
• Allow others to suggest extra stops or not.
• Create a repeating route and route members can view and manage the schedule to select the days they want to join it.
• See who is on the route by clicking the members icon in route details or select a date in the repeating route schedule.
• Accept or decline with one click, and a message is auto-sent indicating your participation.
• Exit a route to notify others you’re not coming, so they don’t wait for you.
• One-click cancellation informs everyone that the route is no longer going ahead.
• Rate the route when it ends.
ROUTE TRACKING
Track Your Location During Routes:
• Once route members have gathered, a member starts the route to track their location.
• This tracking shows route progress, letting other members know where you are.
• Useful if you are meeting route members at a stop along the way.
• End the route to stop tracking at any time.
• If you forget, we auto-end route tracking after a set time.
IN-ROUTE MESSAGING
Communicate Seamlessly with Route Members:
• In-route messages will only be seen by those on the route.
• When the route ends, the messages expire.
• Please keep messages civil!
