Overview

The Driver App uses a colour grading system to help drivers quickly identify the status of each child during the boarding process. These colours provide immediate visual feedback so drivers can confirm scans, identify younger students, and ensure children board and exit the bus safely.

Understanding these colours helps drivers operate the app efficiently and safely.

Colour Status Guide

White – Not Scanned

Meaning:
The child has not yet been scanned onto the bus.

What the driver should do:

• Ask the child to scan their NFC tag or card.

• Confirm the scan before allowing the child to board.

Key Point:
White indicates that the child is not yet registered as onboard.

Orange – Scan Processing

Meaning:
The app is processing the NFC scan.

This colour appears briefly while the system:

• Registers the NFC scan

• Locates the device GPS position

What the driver should do:

• Wait a moment for the scan to complete.

• Do not rescan immediately.

Note:
If GPS has not yet been located, the student’s name may remain Orange slightly longer.

Blue – Successfully Scanned

Meaning:
The child has been successfully scanned onto the bus.

What the driver should do:

• No action required.

• The child is confirmed as onboard.

Key Point:
Blue confirms the scan was successful and recorded correctly.

Purple – Younger Student Alert

Meaning:
Students in Grade 5 and below appear in Purple.

Purpose:
This helps drivers remain extra cautious when these children exit the bus.

What the driver should do:

• Pay close attention when the student disembarks.

• Ensure the child exits at the correct stop.
