Getting Started
Explore DriBu first or start your own trip.
Demo without an account
Choose “Explore demo” on the app's first screen. A prepared trip opens in the real interface with a route, map markers, travellers and sample data.
Create your own trip
Sign up for free, open Trips, create a drive and share its invitation link. Other travellers can then join the trip.
Complete your profile later
An email address and password are enough to start. Add your name and other details before you become active and visible in a group.
Open an invitation
Open the invitation link on your phone. If DriBu is installed, it leads into the app; otherwise you can install it first.
On The Road
Navigation, live map and group features.
Which navigation is free?
Standard turn-by-turn navigation on your phone is free. Premium adds live traffic, saved and advanced routes, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, plus height, width and weight in route planning where regional routing data is available.
Why can I not see someone on the live map?
Each person controls their own location sharing. Check that sharing is active in the trip, DriBu has location permission and the device is online. Old or offline positions are labelled accordingly.
How do I send pause or help?
Open the trip and then its central trip view or navigation. Send pause or help there so the group can understand your status without a phone call.
How do group expenses work?
Open Expenses in the trip, enter amount, currency and payer, then choose equal or individual shares. DriBu shows open amounts per currency. The actual payment happens outside the app.
How do I add earlier journeys and badges?
Open your travel history and add a journey or destination manually. Country and date range contribute to your travel stats and destinations, including trips from before DriBu.
Where are documents and vehicles?
Personal documents and vehicles are in your profile. Trip documents are inside that trip. Mark important files for offline use before you leave.
