We added Safe Zones!

We focused on adding safe zones which prevent the user from doxing themselves and having their address or location leaked to the public because here at DrivnBye YOUR safety is important to us and we wouldn’t want you getting hurt or even risk your life.

• Safe zones have been added
• Safe Zone UI (User interface) has been added
• When in “edit” mode for a marker, you can drag and drop it to a new location
  • Markers change colors if they are (blue) for normal and (green) for when they are being actively edited
• Added call outs to the safe zone marker so if you press on it the map animates to the safe zone and displays the safe zone information

What’s Next?

Our Instagram faced a serious attack, and the chances of recovering it are slim. Despite this setback, we’re maintaining a positive outlook. We’re prepared to tackle the challenge of rebuilding if necessary. If anyone can do it, it is the DrivnBye team. The loss of our account won’t deter us from pursuing our ambitious goals. We’re eager to reconnect with all of you in the near future! So, this sprint our marketing team is focusing on our plan to make a remarkable comeback. #drivnbyetheworld
