A little more awareness.
Before the crossing.

Qoley uses your phone's location to remind you when you approach a mapped railway crossing. A short voice message and a notification — without having to watch the screen.

Development build. No public store release yet.

QOLEY / 01

Fewer distractions.
More useful reminders.

See the crossings

Crossings on a map, nearby objects and source information. An offline schematic or an optional online street basemap.

Hear a short reminder

Prepared voice prompts in Polish, English, German, French and Ukrainian. Stored on the phone, not generated during your journey.

You choose when

Start before travelling and stop whenever you want. A visible notification shows the session status. No automatic startup after a reboot.

QOLEY / 02

Ready before you set off.

01

Check permissions and sound

Allow precise location and notifications. Test the voice message, including your car Bluetooth.

02

Start monitoring

Qoley checks your approach using distance, movement and available road geometry. A started session continues with the screen off.

03

Keep your attention on the road

Hear a reminder and follow the actual signs and signals. GPS quality, phone settings and missing data can limit warnings.

OFFLINE FIRST

The reminder stays with you.
Even without internet.

The crossing database and voice recordings are bundled with the app. The offline map is schematic and has no full street network. The optional street basemap requires internet and shares the viewed area with its provider.

PLANNED · NOT IN THIS VERSION

More railway information.
One assistant.

Next: station departures, delays and nearby train information using PLK Open Railway Data. Reported and estimated positions must be distinguished. This information will not determine whether a crossing is safe.

FAQ

Good to know before travelling.

Does Qoley detect approaching trains?

No. It detects your approach to a crossing stored in the database. It does not know whether a train is approaching, barriers are closed or signals are active.

Will it warn at every crossing?

No guarantee. OSM data can be incomplete or outdated, and GPS can be inaccurate. Nearby parallel roads may still cause false alerts. No warning never means that it is safe to cross.

Where does it work?

The first database covers Poland. Five languages do not mean five-country coverage. It is an Android app, not Android Auto or a full navigation system.

Is my route uploaded?

No route or location history is uploaded. Detection runs on the phone. If you enable online maps, their provider receives your IP address and viewed map area. There are no accounts or analytics.
