New: Traffic-aware ETA for Pro. CarPlay and Apple Watch support. Hands-free voice mode.
Oops, I'm Late! tells you when you're going to be late to a calendar appointment and gets a "running late" message ready for the right people.
The app watches your calendar, tracks your GPS in the background, and calculates a live ETA (traffic-aware with Pro). When you're late, a full-screen countdown appears. One tap prepares "I'm running about 8 minutes late, on my way" for everyone who needs to know. Nothing is sent until you confirm.
HOW IT WORKS
• Start your trip — the app finds your next calendar appointment automatically
• Your ETA is recalculated every few seconds from live GPS, plus live traffic with Pro
• Late detection keeps working in the background (best-effort on iOS — the system schedules periodic checks)
• A dramatic full-screen alert fires when you're projected to be late
• Tap Send Now — or let the countdown finish — and your messaging app opens with the message ready; you tap Send yourself
• Optional arrival confirmation prepares "I've arrived" when you reach your destination
BUILT FOR DRIVING
• Hands-free voice mode: your ETA is read aloud; reply with your voice
• CarPlay support for glanceable ETA on your dashboard (Pro)
• Apple Watch countdown so you can check without picking up your phone
• Haptic feedback ramps up in urgency as the deadline closes in
SMART ETA ENGINE
A calibrated IMM-Kalman filter smooths GPS noise and produces a real-time ETA with a confidence range. Pro subscribers also get traffic-aware ETA from live road conditions.
PRIVACY
• Your calendar and contacts stay on your device
• Your location stays on your device. The one exception is traffic-aware ETA (Pro), which sends rounded coordinates to our routing service. Optional crash reports go to our error-reporting provider. Both can be turned off in Settings
• Messages are composed and sent from your own phone through your messaging app; our servers never see message text or recipient details
• Export or delete your data from Settings > Privacy
SUBSCRIPTIONS
Oops, I'm Late! is free to use with up to 3 saved destinations and 1 contact group.
• Basic: unlimited destinations and contact groups, series templates for recurring meetings, and punctuality insights
