Your drive time,
at a glance.

Stop opening Maps just to see if traffic is terrible.

Arrival lives in your menu bar and shows live drive times for your saved routes — no app to launch, no tabs to juggle.

How it works

Three glances. Zero apps opened.

1

Add your addresses

Enter your home and work addresses. That's it. Arrival takes over from there.

2

Glance at your menu bar

Your drive time and a status icon live in the top of your screen, always. A circle means clear, a triangle means moderate, and double exclamation means heavy.

Traffic has a mood

Arrival tells you what it is.

Each route gets a plain-English status — not just a number — so you know what you're dealing with at a glance.

Clear traffic — Zero drama today Clear traffic — Practically teleporting (dark)
"Rolling like butter"
Moderate traffic — Everyone had the same idea Moderate traffic — Just vibing in traffic (dark)
"Easy on the gas"
Heavy traffic — This is fine (it's not) Heavy traffic — It's a parking lot (dark)
"This is fine (it's not)"

Map & Incidents

picture, live.

  • Floating map window you can detach and move
  • Your route drawn right on the map
  • Accidents, construction, and closures at a glance
  • Severity shown so you know what matters
