Active drives

For rolling out together.

Convoys are built for drivers who are actively coordinating a drive. They are not a public map, a permanent tracker, or a place for people outside the Convoy to watch the drive.

01

Join flow

Start or join with a code, link, or invite.

  • Start a short-lived Convoy when your group is actively coordinating a drive.
  • Share a code, link, or Messages invite with the drivers who should join.
  • If a link opens the website, the fallback page helps the person open or download Idle.
02

Optional sharing

Choose whether to share location while active.

  • Location sharing is optional and tied to an active Convoy.
  • Other active members should only see shared location from members who choose to share.
  • Sharing should stop when you stop sharing, leave, the host ends the Convoy, or the Convoy expires.
03

Focused surfaces

Keep active drive status close when supported.

  • Keep active Convoy context visible in Idle while you are an active member.
  • Use Convoy Live Activities where supported by iPhone and app state.
  • Set up or change Convoy settings while parked. Do not interact with Idle while driving.

What are Idle Convoys?

Convoys are short-lived spaces for active drive coordination. Drivers can start or join with a code, link, or Messages invite, then choose whether to share location while actively in the Convoy.

Can people outside the Convoy see us?

No. Convoys are for active members. The public website does not show live members or live location.

Is Convoy location sharing optional?

Yes. Location sharing is optional and tied to an active Convoy. Other active members should only see shared location from members who choose to share.

What happens when a Convoy link opens the website?

Convoy links are app fallback pages. They help people open or download Idle and may show safe join-code context without exposing live members or location.
