Stop shouting to the back seat. Driver Talk turns your iPhone into a car intercom: speak, and your voice plays through every speaker in the car, clear enough to cut through road noise. HOW IT WORKS • Connect your iPhone to the car over Bluetooth or CarPlay, just like for music. • Tap Talk, say your message, tap again. A gentle chime plays first, then your voice through all speakers. • In hands-free mode, hold the button and you're live, with no recording step. MADE FOR THE ROAD • Voice Clarity: your voice is processed, not just made louder. Engine rumble is trimmed, consonants come forward, levels are evened out. • Quick Phrases: “Buckle up, please”, “We're almost there” in one tap. Add your own; they're spoken offline. • Cabin announcements: your message sounds like a flight attendant or a radio tower. Kids love it. • Arrival announcements: set your arrival time and the car hears “15 minutes to go” on its own. HANDS STAY ON THE WHEEL • Siri: “Tell the back seat with Driver Talk”. • Trip Mode: the play/pause button on your steering wheel starts a message, the previous-track button repeats the last one. • A Live Activity on the Lock Screen, a Control Center button and the Action button. A WALKIE-TALKIE FOR THE BACK SEAT Link the driver's iPhone with an iPad or iPhone in the back using a QR code or a six-digit code. Passengers can call the driver, and their voice plays through the car speakers too. The devices connect directly: no internet, and nothing leaves your car. MADE FOR • Families with kids in the second and third row • Minivans, SUVs, RVs and camper vans • Tour guides, shuttle and minibus drivers Driver Talk is designed to be used without looking at the screen. Follow local traffic laws and keep your eyes on the road. PREMIUM Premium unlocks every feature with a weekly or yearly subscription, or a one-time lifetime purchase.

Most iOS geofencing fires late, fires twice, or never fires at all near a boundary. GeoHook was built to fix exactly that — reliable, on-time location automation you can actually trust. WHY GEOHOOK IS DIFFERENT • PRECISION YOU CAN RELY ON. GeoHook uses a high-accuracy iOS 17+ background location session ("Precision Monitoring") with exact-boundary detection, hysteresis, debounce, and directional lead-in zones — designed to fire AT the boundary, not minutes late. Purpose-built for the precision and reliability that typical iOS geofencing apps don't deliver. • HOW YOU ARRIVE BECOMES A CONDITION (Premium). Trigger different actions depending on whether you arrive on foot, by bike, or motorized — detected on-device from your iPhone's motion, no extra hardware needed. Open the garage when you come home from your bike ride. Turn on the backyard lights when you return from your run. And keep the garage closed when you're just walking the dog past the house. • YOUR CAR BECOMES A CONDITION. Fire a webhook only when your car is actually with you. GeoHook detects any car via its CarPlay or Bluetooth hands-free system (Premium — no extra hardware), a Tesla via Phone Key, or any vehicle with an iBeacon on board. Your garage opens when you DRIVE home — not when you walk past. • DRIVING FOCUS AS A CONDITION (Premium). Let webhooks depend on whether your iPhone's Driving Focus is active — set up once with a Shortcuts automation or a Focus filter. WORKS WITH YOUR SETUP Send HTTP webhooks (GET/POST/PUT/PATCH) to Home Assistant, Homey, IFTTT, n8n, Apple Shortcuts, or any custom API. If it accepts a web request, GeoHook can trigger it. BUILT FOR CONTROL & TRANSPARENCY • Live status: watch your current motion state and CarPlay connection update in real time • Flowchart view of your trigger logic — see exactly why an action fires or doesn't • Detailed event timeline with a map of each trigger point, distance, and request metrics • Per-area notifications and a status dashboard • In-app debug tools, an AI help assistant, and optional extended support from our team PRIVACY FIRST Your location and motion data NEVER leave your device. No cloud location storage, no tracking, no ads. Webhook credentials are stored in the iOS Keychain. GDPR compliant. MORE • Monitor up to 20 areas, with multiple webhooks per area • iCloud config sync across your devices • Smart battery management • Apple Family Sharing support (Family plans) PRICING Core geofencing and webhooks are FREE FOREVER — what you can use today stays free. • GeoHook Premium (monthly, Family plan available): movement conditions, CarPlay/hands-free car detection, Driving Focus — plus everything from Tesla & iBeacon. • GeoHook Tesla & iBeacon (monthly): Tesla Phone Key detection, iBeacon vehicle and area detection. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Tesla and Apple are trademarks of their respective owners. GeoHook is an independent app and is not affiliated with, endorsed, or sponsored by Tesla or Apple.
