No apps to install. It works natively with your iPhone using Shortcuts.
Define the spots you want to track—Office, Gym, or Coffee Shop. We generate a unique ID for each.
Copy our iOS Shortcut JSON. Set it to run when your phone connects to a specific Wi-Fi or enters an area.
Open your private dashboard link anytime to see your check-in history, heatmap, and weekly consistency.
It started with a new Return-to-Office policy. I needed a way to prove I was physically in the office without the mental load of remembering to open an app and press a button every single morning.
I wanted something simple. I didn't want to share my location with a social network, and I didn't want a heavy app draining my battery.
So I built Arrive. It uses the automation tools already on your phone. When my phone connects to the office Wi-Fi, it quietly logs a check-in. That's it. It’s simple, private, and automatic.
Yes. Arrive is "private by default." We don't track your location in the background. We only record a timestamp when your automation triggers it. We don't sell data or use tracking pixels.
The service relies on sending a web request (webhook). While we provide instructions for iOS Shortcuts, you can use any Android automation app (like Tasker or MacroDroid) to trigger the same web request.
No. Arrive runs entirely in your browser. The "app" part is just a bookmarkable link. The actual tracking logic lives in your phone's native automation settings.
We recommend adding an email address during setup so we can send you a recovery link. If you don't add an email and lose the link, the data is inaccessible (even to us) and you'll need to start over.
Arrive is 100% free to use, private, and ad-free. However, reliable hosting and database storage rely on community support. If this automation saves you time, please consider supporting the project.
