## What is SABRE Personal Safety?

The SABRE Personal Safety app sends help alerts to selected contacts with your GPS location. Stay safer wherever you go with a personal safety app you can trust by your side.

Use the in-app panic button on its own to send help alerts, or pair it with the SABRE SMART Pepper Spray. Your selected contacts will be immediately notified by SMS text and provided a map link to pinpoint your exact location as well as geo-tracking updates until you mark yourself as safe.

Free Features:
- See something that worries you? Approached by a stranger? Send automatic SMS text alerts to your selected contacts by the push of a button in the app. If it’s a false alarm, you can easily mark yourself as safe to cancel the alert.
- In case of danger, the app geo-tracks your exact location in real time. It will automatically send your current location with the initial alert, and will continue providing your real-time location. Selected contacts will be able to follow you until you mark yourself as safe.
- Your selected contacts do not have to have the app downloaded to receive your help alerts, so you can trust your alerts will be sent every time to verified contacts.
- Use the in-app map to view your own location at any time, ideal if you find yourself in an unfamiliar area.

Pair Devices:
- Add an extra layer of protection by pairing the SABRE SMART Pepper Spray, which connects via Bluetooth. Your selected contacts will automatically get an alert and access to your location if the SMART Pepper Spray is deployed; selected contacts will have access to your real-time location until you mark yourself as safe.
- View your SMART Pepper Spray battery power level and pairing status easily in the app.

Premium Features:
- If you choose to upgrade to SABRE Premium, you’ll have access to send alert notifications to 911 dispatchers when the in-app alert is sent or when your SMART Pepper Spray is deployed.
- Local police will be alerted and given the ability to track and help you in case of emergency.

Note: Continued use of GPS running in the background can impact mobile device battery life. We recommend opening the SABRE Personal Safety app when you’re out and about, and closing it when you safely get where you’re going to preserve battery life.

### 1/5 — Can't register for account

*2025-08-22*

Everytime I try registering for an account it tells me error and to report it. I reached out to customer service 5 days ago and I haven't received any communication back

### 5/5 — Simple to Use

*2023-05-06*

Works both on its own and when paired with the Sabre pepper spray.  It was easy to set up and the location piece seems to be be very accurate

### 5/5 — Safety in the 21st Century

*2023-05-03*

Such a great idea. The fact that this app notifies your loved ones when/if the pepper spray is used, is top tier, next gen safety. I wonder what else Sabre has planned for the future!

### 5/5 — Peace of mind

*2023-05-03*

I love having this app! I feel a lot safer when I walk alone knowing I can push a button and my contacts will know where I am if I feel unsafe.

### 5/5 — Super Easy & Gives me Confidence!

*2023-04-25*

I’ve worried about being attacked and no one being notified. This gives me the added security I need when commuting alone at night. Super easy to setup and use. I love that I can add so many contacts, so multiple people are notified. The app also continues to show your location as you move which I have not seen with any other product. Such a great feature as you are most likely running to safety after triggering it! Very happy with my purchase. ☺️

### 5/5 — College Protection

*2023-04-25*

My daughter is going off the college in the fall. 
Safety is our top priority.  This smart pepper spray will keep us connected round the clock while she is away.  Thank you SABRE!

### 1/5 — What's more important. Notifying people when you Spray? Or using your phone

*2023-01-03*

This is the reality I had to deal with after downloading this app. I bought the Sabre pepper spray to feel safer But all Ive found is That I needed to sacrifice my phone in order to do so. For some unknown reason this app drains ludicrous amounts of battery from your phone. I'm not talking 1-2%. Im talking 72% OF YOUR PHONE BATTERY GONE IN 5 HOURS. Take today for example. I charged my phone to 92% at 5:00pm and went to go hang out with some friends, I used my phone twice during them and 10:00PM yet somehow this app managed to drain my phone to 7% battery in that time. If I was in an emergency and needed to call the police I would not be able to due to this app being so demanding. Not even my dedicated tracking app Life360 uses this about less than 5% this amount. This app is downright shameful

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2021-05-27*

Tried to load it on my phone but was supposed to receive SMS confirmation that did not arrive. 
If it doesn’t SMS me then how can I trust it will notify others in an emergency?

### 5/5 — Like my safety shadow!

*2020-09-18*

I love this app - it makes me feel safer when I walk home from work. There are lots of apps that have safety buttons like this (Uber/Tinder) but none I’ve found that are totally dedicated to safety. This one’s great bc I open up the app and have instant access to the safety button. 

Tracks me in real time and if I ever feel unsafe, I press the button and my roommates and parents can track me too. 

The only thing I’d say is that like any location tracking app, it can drain battery if you leave it on all the time, so I usually turn it off when I get home or to work. 

Get this app and trust your gut!

### 5/5 — WOW, Amazing Idea!

*2020-09-17, version 1.3.0*

This is such a great idea for people on the go! I am so excited to see something like this come to the market. I already feel more confident and protected having this product during my commute in the morning and at night. Great product and very innovative idea! 👏🏽
