## What is Guard Route?

Guard Route combines turn-by-turn navigation with personal safety support. Start a trip, search for a destination, follow a road-focused route with voice guidance, and share your live location when you choose. Send an SOS with your current location to your linked response partner, manage trusted contacts, and report hazards from the road. Guard Route is designed to connect users with participating tracking, armed-response, and ambulance partners. Availability depends on partner coverage and the services enabled for your account.
