One-tap delay card
Pick a preset — traffic, parking, last stop, 5 minutes away — and you're done. No typing the same apology twice.
Free · No signup · No app to install
Running late? Send one link instead of five texts.
QueueSlip is a free I’m-running-late link that replaces the awkward “sorry, traffic” spiral with a single shareable page — live ETA, reason, and checkpoint updates. Privacy-safe, no app, no signup, and the link auto-expires after the meeting. Built for tutoring, gym meetups, family pickups, and everyday plans.
How to share an “I’m running late” link in 3 steps

Update on the way
One-tap checkpoints keep the recipient in the loop. The link expires when you arrive.
Why QueueSlip beats texts and live-location sharing
Find My is too heavy. Group texts are too noisy. QueueSlip is the in-between you actually want.
Live ETA countdown
Recipients see a clean status page that updates in real time. No awkward back-and-forth, no constant texts.
Privacy-safe by default
Text-only mode, rough-area mode, or full ETA — you choose. No always-on location sharing, no permanent footprint.
Quick checkpoint updates
"Reached parking." "On the elevator." "Outside." One tap, the page updates, the recipient knows.
Auto-expires
Links go dead after the meeting window. Nothing lingers, nothing leaks, nothing to clean up later.
Branded short slugs

Frequently asked questions
Do I need an account to use QueueSlip?
No. You create a delay link from the web, share the URL, and it just works. The link itself is the only thing that grants access.
Does the recipient need to install an app?
No app, no signup. The recipient opens a normal web page that's optimized for slow mobile connections.
Is my location tracked?
Only if you opt in. The default is text-only — you set an ETA and reason. You can switch to rough-area mode or share precise ETA, and you can revoke at any time.
What happens to the link after the meeting?
It auto-expires after the meeting window ends, so there's no permanent record of where you were or where you went.
Can the recipient ask to reschedule?
Yes. The status page has an optional "need to reschedule?" action so the recipient can respond without writing a new message.
Skip the awkward apology text.
Create your first QueueSlip in under ten seconds. No signup, no install, no tracking after the meeting ends.
