Whether you are a safety conscious traveller, a concerned employer, a caring parent or a loving “other half”; this is the app to make a dodgy taxi driver “straighten up and fly right”. TaxiGuard works no matter where you are in the world, a Big Brother to keep an independent track of your movements whenever you tell it to, and to help your friends or loved ones to call out the cavalry if you are in trouble.

Once initiated for a journey, our independent server we will keep a permanent, real-time record of:
• Which cab you entered.
• Where you entered it.
• Who your driver is.
• Where you are going.
• How long you wish your location to be tracked, and
• Which route your driver has travelled.

TaxiGuard Features:
1) Automatic notification of your Emergency Contact(s), if you do not report a safe conclusion.
2) A “Panic Button” to raise an immediate alarm, if required.
3) If an ALARM is raised, your contact(s) are provided with a real-time plot of your current position and subsequent movements, in order to direct immediate assistance to you.
4) Ability to upload photographs and text notes, to provide a comprehensive record.
5) Provides a constantly updated “ETA at Destination”, enabling you to monitor your driver’s competence and/or his intentions in choosing the best route possible. If it drifts out without obvious explanation, you soon become aware of a developing issue.
6) Puts your driver on notice that are not alone; your “Big Brother” is watching over you.
7) Keeps your buddies informed via Facebook, if you wish.
8) Keeps a permanent, secure and independent record of details of your journey, which can be used to recover lost property, justify your expense account, or retrospectively analyse the performance of your cabbie, as well as provide forensic evidence in case of a crime.

Crimes committed in taxis are inevitably and almost exclusively opportunistic. By establishing an immediate, real-time and automatically updated audit trail of your journey, you can put your driver on notice of the consequences of almost any form of dishonesty or unprofessionalism.

• For employers who care for their staff using taxis, this is a fabulous tool to protect them – and your company, in what can be a legal minefield.
• For parents and “concerned others” it is a superb application of modern technology to protect the ones you love.
• For people robbed of their freedom by the inherent danger of solo travel in taxis; it can restore their confidence and independence.
