bSafeMobile by Cogosense is a software solution for smartphones and tablets that detects the driving state and automatically puts the device in safe mode while driving.
In safe mode, a curtain screen blocks access to the keyboard and screen. All notifications and alerts are suppressed – including incoming calls, texts and emails.
bSafeMobile also monitors and reports on unsafe driving behaviours, including speeding, hard braking and excessive acceleration.
