Text me when you get home?

Promise. And this time, without having to think about it: start your trip in one tap, and your people are notified the moment you arrive.

Illustration: a dot follows Léa’s trip to her window. When she arrives, the window lights up and her people get the message: “Léa is home safe.”

“I’ll text you when I’m home.” Then we fall asleep.

Without BienRentré

  1. MomText me when you’re home?

  2. LéaPromise.

  3. Léa gets home, puts her phone down, and falls asleep.

  4. Léa the next daySorry, I got home fine yesterday, forgot to tell you!

With BienRentré

  1. MomText me when you’re home?

  2. Léa taps “I’m leaving.” That’s it.

  3. BienRentré, automaticallyLéa is home safe.

  4. Everyone’s asleep.

One tap to leave. Nothing to do when you arrive.

  1. I’m leaving

    One tap from the home screen. Destination, people to notify, and trip length carry over from your last trip.

  2. On the way

    Your phone stays in your pocket. BienRentré tracks your progress and adjusts your arrival time.

  3. Home safe

    Home, at a hotel, or at a friend’s: a minute after you arrive, your people get the message. You can send it earlier, or stop it if you were just passing by.

Your people see what you choose. Nothing more.

For every trip, and every person you notify, you choose the level of detail — like adjusting a blind.

What your people see

What Mom sees

“Léa is on the way · 60% there · arriving around 23:41”

Your location is used to work out your progress, then it’s forgotten: never shown, never kept.

What Mom sees

“Léa is somewhere in this area · arriving around 23:41”

Your location is rounded to about a hundred metres before it’s ever saved or shown.

What Mom sees

“Léa is right here, live, for the length of the trip”

For the people you trust completely. Sharing stops the moment you arrive.

What if they don’t have the app?

Send them a tracking link on WhatsApp or by text. They watch for your arrival right in their browser, no account needed. Links are free, unlimited, and switch off 12 hours after you arrive.

BienRentré reassures; it doesn’t keep tabs on you. You start every trip yourself, and you can stop it whenever you like. Outside of a trip, the app doesn’t know where you are, and your people never see your history.

Running late isn’t an alert.

Running a bit late? BienRentré checks in with you first — are you okay? Slide to confirm, and no one’s disturbed. Need more time? One tap adds 15 minutes.

If there’s no answer when the countdown ends, your people are told, calmly. And if it was a false alarm, they hear that too.

Free for life: the alert will never be a paid feature.

BienRentré lets your people know — it’s not an emergency service. If you’re in danger, call 112 (or 17 in France), or text 114 if you can’t speak.

Try it yourself

End of the night? Everyone gets home.

Scan a QR code on the spot, and everyone starts their own trip. The windows light up one by one. Once the last one’s lit, everyone can go to sleep.

What we’ll never do.

  • Track your location outside of a trip you’ve started.

  • Charge for the alert.It stays free for life, just like tracking links.

  • Sell your location, even “anonymised.”

  • Put ads or an ad tracker in the app.

  • Pitch a subscription during a trip, or in the 24 hours after an alert.

  • Show your history to your people.

In testing · iPhone and Android

The app is coming soon.

We’re testing it on real trips right now, before opening it up to everyone.

A question, or a night out to organise?

Get in touchbonjour@bienrentre.app

The questions people ask us.

What exactly is BienRentré?

An app that lets your people know when you arrive, without you having to think about it. You tap “I’m leaving,” BienRentré follows your trip, and the moment you arrive, your people get a message. Nothing else to do.

Which phones, and starting when?

BienRentré works on iPhone and Android. It’s currently being tested, and it’s coming soon.

Do the people I notify need the app?

No. You can send them a tracking link on WhatsApp or by text: they’ll see your arrival right in their browser, no account needed. If they do install the app, they’ll also get a notification when you arrive.

Does BienRentré track me all the time?

No. Location is only used during a trip you’ve started, and it stops the moment you arrive or cancel it. Outside of a trip, the app has no idea where you are.

Where does my data go, and for how long?

With “Progress only,” your location isn’t kept. At the other levels, it’s kept for as long as you choose (30 days by default), then deleted; the trip itself is deleted within twelve months at the latest. Nothing is ever sold, to anyone.

What if I forget to say I’m home?

That’s the whole point. Arrival is detected the moment you enter your destination’s radius, and the message goes out on its own, a minute later. You can change that delay, or choose to send it yourself.

What if my phone dies?

BienRentré doesn’t panic over a lost signal. If your people are following your trip, they’ll see that the app has stopped hearing from you, with a reassuring note — it’s often just a tunnel or a low battery. No alert goes out before your expected arrival time; only after that, if there’s still no word from you, do they get a message, along with the last thing the app heard.

Is it free?

The app is free. The alert and the tracking links always will be. Later on, a BienRentré+ plan will add extra comfort, like more people to notify and more groups. During the beta, everything is free.

Is this an emergency app?

No. BienRentré reassures your people — it doesn’t call for help. If you’re in danger, call 112 (or 17 in France), or text 114 if you can’t speak.

Does it work for a night out with friends, or for an event?

Yes. With “Everyone gets home,” each person starts their own trip from the same group: the windows light up one by one, until the last person is home. For a student night out, a festival, or an organisation, the organiser never sees who’s where, only headcounts. Get in touch to learn more.
