The Driver App Built for Real-World Logistics
Navigator is Fleetbase's open-source mobile app for drivers and field agents. Jobs auto-dispatch from Fleet-Ops, routes are calculated instantly, and proof of delivery is captured on the spot — with or without a signal.
AGPL-3.0
Open source licence
iOS + Android
Both platforms
Offline-first
Works without signal
Smart Navigation
Turn-by-turn GPS with offline maps, live traffic rerouting, and multi-stop route optimisation so drivers always take the fastest path.
Proof of Delivery
Capture photos, QR codes, and digital signatures at the doorstep. Every delivery is timestamped and synced to the dispatch console instantly.
In-App Comms
Real-time chat with dispatch, customers, and teammates — no switching apps, no personal numbers shared, no dead air.
Orders from Fleet-Ops land in the app the moment they're assigned
Dispatchers assign jobs in the Fleet-Ops console and Navigator alerts the driver immediately via push notification. No phone calls, no WhatsApp chains — the full order brief is already on the driver's screen.
- Push-notification on assignment with full order details
- Accept or reject jobs directly from the lock screen
- Priority and scheduling visible at a glance
- Automatic status updates back to Fleet-Ops on every action
Gets drivers there — with or without a signal
Navigator downloads map tiles for the route automatically so drivers never get stuck when coverage drops in a warehouse district, basement car park, or rural area. When connectivity returns, position and status sync instantly.

Pushed to dispatch
Every delivery is verified, timestamped, and dispute-proof
Configure exactly what proof each order type requires. Photo of the parcel, recipient signature, QR scan of a label — or all three. Evidence is attached to the order record in Fleet-Ops and available for download immediately.

Dispatch and drivers stay in sync without leaving the app
Navigator includes built-in real-time messaging so drivers can flag issues, request clarification, or confirm delivery details without switching to WhatsApp or SMS. Threads are attached to the order so context is never lost.
- Direct messages between driver and dispatcher
- Order-scoped threads keep conversations in context
- Push notifications for new messages even when app is backgrounded
- Customer-facing channels for ETA updates and access instructions

Every feature a driver needs to execute deliveries professionally — built into one open-source app that you fully control.

Performance Stats
Drivers can track their own delivery count, ratings, and on-time performance.
Multi-Vehicle Support
Drivers can switch between assigned vehicles; capacity and type carried on the job.
iOS & Android
One codebase, two platforms — same feature set on both app stores.
Real-Time Sync
Every status tap reflects in Fleet-Ops immediately — zero polling delays.
Extensible via SDK
Add custom screens, scan-and-confirm flows, or third-party integrations using the extension SDK.
Ship it under your own brand — not ours
Navigator is AGPL-3.0 open source. Fork the repo, swap the logo, set your primary colour, point it at your Fleetbase instance, and submit to the app stores as your own product. No royalties, no white-label fees — or purchase a commercial licence if you need to keep your modifications proprietary.
- Replace name, logo, and colours in a single config file
- Point at any self-hosted or cloud Fleetbase instance
- Extend with custom screens via the extension SDK
- Commercial licence available for proprietary forks
