Seatbelt and phone enforcement for every driver in your fleet

Distracted driving and unbelted crashes are the two most expensive, most preventable risks a fleet carries. BuckledApp makes both non-negotiable on the driver’s own phone, with no hardware to install and a dashboard that shows you who is actually protected.

Organization-enforced protection

You distribute a single organization code. Every driver who joins has BuckledApp protection turned on automatically and cannot switch it off. Right after sign-in they are guided through a mandatory three-step setup; until it is complete, the dashboard shows “Setup needed” rather than a false green light.

At 20 MPH the driver takes a 2.5-second seatbelt selfie. Driver Focus then keeps distracting apps locked until the vehicle stops. Navigation, dispatch, music and calls stay available, and you choose which apps are considered safe.

The fleet dashboard

See every member’s status in one place: setup complete or missing (and which permission is missing), signed in or signed out, last seatbelt check result and time, and current protection state. Signing out of the app is reported to you immediately, and protection continues to run on the device until they sign back in.

Cooldown and check frequency

After a passed check, drivers are not asked again for a cooldown period you configure for your organization. Individuals get a fixed 48 hours; organizations can set it to match their duty cycle.

Pricing

Organizations are priced per driver account with volume tiers. Tell us how many accounts you need and the best time to reach you, and we will follow up with a quote and onboarding plan. Schools, sports teams and youth programs use the same system to protect student drivers.

Questions we get asked

Does it work for trucks and fleets?

Yes. Fleet operators, schools and teams distribute a single organization code. Every driver who joins has protection turned on automatically and cannot switch it off, and the fleet dashboard shows who has finished setup, who is signed out, and each driver’s last seatbelt check.

Can my teen just turn BuckledApp off or delete it?

Not quietly. On a managed child account (Safety+) or an organization account there is no off switch in the app: protection is on from sign-in, and if a required permission is revoked the app returns to setup instead of running unprotected. Anything that stops protection — signing out, revoking Screen Time or location access, or removing the app so it stops reporting — shows up on the parent or fleet dashboard as “BuckledApp off”, “Setup needed” or “Signed out”, with an alert. So a teen can stop it the way they can take off a seatbelt, but not without you knowing, and there is no way to keep the streak or the safety score while doing it.

Can my teen bypass the phone lock during an emergency?

Yes. Emergency calling is never blocked, and the Phone app remains available for calls. Navigation apps such as Apple Maps, Google Maps and Waze, plus music and podcast apps, stay accessible during Driver Focus. Only distracting apps — social media, video and games — are locked while the vehicle is moving, and they unlock automatically once the car has stopped.

Which apps count as “distracting apps”?

TikTok, Instagram, Snapchat, YouTube, games and similar apps. On iPhone, BuckledApp uses Apple’s Screen Time (Family Controls) framework and you choose which apps stay available while driving. On Android you pick a list of safe apps and everything else is shielded during a drive.

Does BuckledApp track my teen’s live GPS location?

It does not need to. BuckledApp enforces the rules on the phone itself — the seatbelt is verified and distracting apps are locked whether or not anyone is watching — and reports the result. Parents on Safety+ see, for each child, that BuckledApp is on, that the last seatbelt check passed and when, and that protection is set up correctly, with an alert if it is switched off. Location and motion permissions are used on the phone only to measure speed and detect when a drive starts and stops; a live map or route history is not part of the product, which is a big reason teens keep it running.

Questions people search for

How do I enforce seatbelt use across my fleet without installing hardware?

Give drivers one organization code. BuckledApp turns protection on for every driver who joins, runs a 2.5-second AI seatbelt check at 20 MPH on their own phone, and your fleet dashboard shows each driver’s last check result and time. No telematics install, no per-vehicle cost.

Is there an app that stops truck drivers from using their phones while driving?

Yes. BuckledApp’s Driver Focus locks distracting apps for the whole drive once the driver is verified — no scrolling TikTok or Facebook at 65 mph; dispatch, navigation, music and calls stay available and you choose which apps count as safe. Drivers on an organization account cannot switch it off.

How is BuckledApp different from Samsara, Motive or Lytx?

Those platforms are camera-and-telematics systems that record what happened; they cost hardware plus a monthly fee per vehicle. BuckledApp is phone-only, priced per driver, and prevents the behavior rather than filming it: the seatbelt is verified and the distracting apps are locked before the truck is at speed. It suits small fleets, delivery operations and school programs as a first safety program or alongside telematics.

Can I see which drivers are actually protected?

Yes. The fleet dashboard shows setup complete or “Setup needed” (and which permission is missing), signed in or signed out, current protection state and the last seatbelt check. Signing out is reported to you immediately.

Does a distracted-driving app reduce fleet insurance costs?

Many commercial insurers offer discounts for documented distracted-driving and seatbelt programs; BuckledApp gives you a per-driver record of passed seatbelt checks and phone-free drives that you can show them. Ask your carrier what documentation they accept.
