Apple Watch
The next hotspot and the limit on your wrist, and a tap on your wrist when you're over. Your phone can stay in your bag.
Meet your co-driver
Hotspot speaks up before every camera, checkpoint and crash on your road, with the limit for each. Your eyes stay on the road.
Get the app
Seen something? Two taps and drivers behind you know
Report a camera, checkpoint, crash, jam or closure while you drive, or tell us one has gone.
How reporting works- Speed cameras
- Police checkpoints
- Crashes
- Heavy traffic
From your wrist to your dashboard
Start a drive on your phone and the alerts follow you to the screen you're looking at.
Android Auto
The map, the next hotspot and your speed on your car's screen. Plug in and drive.
Apple CarPlay
The same spoken alerts and map on your iPhone's car display.

Build on Ghana's road data
Making a navigation or fleet app? Use the same hotspots and speed limits that power Hotspot, kept current by drivers and checked by our moderators.
Hotspots
Speed cameras, police checks, crashes and closures, each with its limit and alert zone.
Speed limits
Limits for Ghana’s roads from OpenStreetMap, plus the ones our team adds by hand.
Reports
Let your drivers report what they see. A person checks each one before it reaches the map.
GET /hotspots X-Api-Key: your-key 200 OK · application/geo+json { "type": "FeatureCollection", "metadata": { "updated_on": "2026-11-07", "attribution": "Road geometry and speed limits (c) OpenStreetMap contributors, ODbL." }, "features": [{ "type": "Feature", "id": "camera-nsawam-road-caprice", "geometry": { "type": "Point", "coordinates": [-0.21668, 5.58253] }, "properties": { "type": "camera", "status": "confirmed", "name": "Nsawam Road, Caprice", "zone_radius_m": 100, "speed_limit_kmh": 50, "precision": "approx" } }, …] }

About us
Made in Ghana, for Ghana's roads
Drivers report what they see. A person checks every report before it reaches the map, so the alerts you hear are ones you can trust.
- Every report checked by a person
- Works without signal
- No ads, no drive history
How does Hotspot know where the cameras are?
Drivers report what they see, and a person on our team checks every report before it goes on the map. Drivers who pass later can say if it’s still there or gone, so old ones drop off.
Does it work when I lose signal?
Yes. Hotspot keeps a copy of the hotspots on your phone, so alerts keep coming without signal. It picks up changes the next time you’re online.
Will it warn me with the screen off?
Yes. Allow location “Always” and Hotspot keeps warning you while the screen is off or you’re in another app, like your music.
Does Hotspot track where I drive?
No. We don’t keep a history of where you drive. We only keep a location when you send a report.
Can I use it in my car or on my watch?
Yes. Hotspot shows on your car’s screen with Android Auto, and alerts reach your Apple Watch. CarPlay is coming soon.
Are the alerts always right?
They’re a help, not a guarantee. Always drive within the limit and follow the road signs.
I build apps. Can I use your data?
Yes. Our API gives you the same hotspots and speed limits the app uses. See the developers section above.
