CoPilot Live Communications
CoPilot Live allows you to maintain two-way communication with drivers who are using
CoPilot and to actually see where they are currently located using your computer with
CoPilot installed or from our CoPilot Live web page.
Using this CoPilot Live functionality requires the following:
1) If you want to track and message other drivers: An Internet connection on the
computer where CoPilot is installed, or access to our CoPilot Live web page
through a normal web browser.
2) If you want others to track and send messages to you in your vehicle: CoPilot
Live running in your vehicle. You must have a wireless Internet connection.
CoPilot Live Web
As a CoPilot user, you can create an account on our website that allows you to join the
CoPilot Live Network. Then your family, friends, and coworkers can "see" you and
communicate with you anywhere in the world! Through the website you can do all of the
following:
1) Send text messages to CoPilot users using large, customizable, one-touch
response buttons to ensure driver safety.
2) Real-time tracking of other people who are on the road. See their current
location, destination, ETA and much more.
3) Send itinerary updates including new stops and revised destinations, allowing you
to coordinate changes in plans with someone who's on the road right now without
forcing them to pull over and enter new information.
4) Text-to-Speech enhances safety for all your communications: Text messages and
itinerary updates are spoken out loud when you send them, keeping the recipient
focused on the road ahead.
5) Create an online account from where you can send temporary or permanent
tracking numbers to friends and family. You can also create and join groups with
other CoPilot users and manage all your account preferences.
Since you're the one who owns CoPilot, it's likely that your friends and family will be the
ones logging onto the CoPilot Live web site to communicate with you. However, setting up
your own account allows you to distribute tracking numbers and have tighter control of the
security so you know who has access to you while you're on the road.
