### 3/5 — Good app but Too long to open

*2020-07-08*

Good app but it takes around 10 seconds to open. That’s way too long for any app, but specially for an Emergency App. Also you should add at least 1 more person to the free option, otherwise someone can really be in an emergency and use the app and 1 person might not reply on time.

### 5/5 — Best app for safety

*2019-01-09*

First of all thanks a lot Silent Beacon.  It was major accident of my car and I got injured too, my phone screen damaged, but phone was working. Then I immediately used the beacon device for help. My friend came immediately after and safe me. This is the best app for safety.

### 5/5 — All in one app👍👍

*2018-12-10*

This app came to my rescue when I met with an accident and I had to alert my girlfriend. My girlfriend got the alert in no time and she responded with emergency services immediately. Thanks to God that I am safe today because of only Silent Beacon app. Everyone should have this app. Thanks Silent Beacon.

### 5/5 — Great app!!

*2018-11-24*

Got it working on my iPhone... super easy to setup!

What is the low battery feature? Couldn't find info on it.  

Keep up the good work, my husband thanks you too!!

### 1/5 — Stop spamming me with notifications!!!

*2018-05-31, version 3.0.7*

I have just been BOMBARDED with over a hundred notifications that random people “need my help”. Why am I receiving this! I don’t even know these people!

### 1/5 — Spam!!!

*2018-05-31, version 3.0.7*

I keep receiving help notices from random people I don’t know. Now i have to delete.

### 3/5 — New update ruins it

*2018-02-11*

Been using the app for a long time and now it’s terrible because of automatically sending the message you physically have to hit send I want something to where If I desperately need help I hit one button and that’s it.

**Developer response:** Hi Freshie, and thanks for reaching out.  I agree with you it causes an extra step for the free version, but you have to understand why from our side.  

People were SPAMMING that button over and over hundreds of times for no reason.  They just hit it because they could.  We pay for 3rd party services and bandwidth every single time you press that button, we were paying more than we were making... a business can not survive that way. With having to press "send" we use your phones own software which alleviates the cost we had to take on.  

having said that, when you have the Silent beacon Device hooked up to your App, or if you purchase the monthly subscription we allow you to do that.

So to sum up, because of the manner which some people were using / abusing the app we had to put in methods to make sure we did not go bankrupt.  The Free version is still free and does everything as before, its just an extra step, but it is needed.

I hope you will still continue to use our App and I hope you order our Beacon as well to see all the other unlocked features!

Thanks

### 1/5 — Silent Beacon

*2018-02-04*

Don't waste your money!! I purchased the Silent Beacon product a year ago March and have never received it!! What good is the app without the product?? There is no business address that I can find. I have emailed and gotten no response (several times. I'm going to the Better Business Bureau with this. It's been almost a year!!

### 5/5 — Thanks

App doesn’t work as expected. not a happy user

### 1/5 — Won’t allow a PIN number

*2022-04-28*

Tried to set up. It gets to the PIN number and states already used not allowed. Tried 20 different combos. Sorry if you can’t set it up it’s of no use.

### 1/5 — Terrible, Dangerous, Violating, Violent & Horrific Meninist Application

*2021-05-11*

Regarding: Silent Beacon iPhone and Samsung galaxy application - truly for stalking, harassment, alienation, degradation & suicide & murder from a meninist perspective. Urgently needs to be taken down. Catharine Solomon and Katie MacIntosh were friends of mine in highschool but I became distant while the two of them stuck together until they decided they no longer wanted to speak to me. About 5 years later I was microchipped by Andrew Sheung, and while it’s a dissolvable microchip it has a coating of fentanyl that has to be stripped as well as only having one solution for it’s dissolve, being sulfates. It corresponds with an iPhone App called Silent Beacon, as well as have the 175 tiny microchips put in my brain with an instrument going into ones ears. The fentanyl coatings can be released any time and the person with a command chip is able to determine this whilst those who are illegally and horrifically microchipped with the basic version that requires no headphones to speak into ones head, simply pre-uploaded scenarios. Of all the ones I’ve heard permeate my head over the last year and a half of not having a ‘thought voice’ of my own such as the command chip users of the app suggests, perhaps the most random and utterly disturbing though it began after a series of break-ins into my apartment that I previously reported as well by the man operating said command chip, Andrew Sheung, as well as general stalking and sexual assault and rape - Katie & Catharine’s resurfacing was utterly bizarre in the form of hearing their ‘thought voices’ literally intrusively and completely disturbingly depict scenarios in which they amputate and rape non-binary people and women of colour to an extreme number in terms of cost of lives. They play holograms themselves as well as these scenarios that are so loud in your head that you couldn’t in a million years sleep or focus. They said that typically they keep FEMINIST women of whom they’re jealous of awake for weeks but sometimes just a week in a half before they either murder them/amputate them or they make them kill themselves through mental torment. The entire application is a meninist degradation application in which you become completely isolated and alienated and humiliated as the chip itself communicates visuals to the app if you’re connected with a command chip that corresponds with the mentally ill women that you’ve determined you ought to be harassing, violating, raping and eventually amputating and murdering. It’s framed as an honesty and empathy and a safety app and at first one of said thought voices that turned out to be a meninist ‘thought in my head’ and I realized he was a stalker I’d had for most of my life; since becoming a teenager, and in particular after one brief tinder conversation in which he’d said he’d worked with my doctor so I’d said it was inappropriate and that I had anxiety and that was the end of our in person and consensual interactions. Katie lives, however, on the note of serial killers and stalkers abusing feminist mentally ill women by unconsensually giving them microchips and then not leaving them a moment to themselves in their brains or onward in their lives as they have too many to eliminate, in Lawrence Park. She’s 25 now like I am and quite tall and slender with reddish blonde hair and blue eyes. Catharine, who I have known to be a meninist but not violent as far as I was aware in highschool, lives very close to your station. I don’t know what there is to be done about this other than ensuring the app gets taken down from the App Store, as some police backup would be wonderful. And in addition, needless to say, I hope this spawns investigation of these two women both approximately 25 now (Catharine has medium/dark brown hair in a short hair cut and blue eyes and very pale skin and is slender but not particularly tall - about 5’5). I am worried for potential future victims while I worry for myself having so many microchips to eliminate prior to having freedom of thought or stable sleeping and eating cycles or any sense of safety again. And I know they target so many women online as well as in real life and they brag about it incredibly excessively with their thought-voices. Thank you very much for considering my tip. Meninist ideals permeate the app and scare me on behalf of myself as well as three living female friends who have accumulated many microchips themselves and one of whom who disappeared and was amputated and raped but who is hopefully recovering now and another of whom has been coping with the secretly violently meninist application and pre-uploaded scenarios torturing her in her google-able (although slightly more specific version of) a brain microchip that was originally for rats and that dissolves. Those friends are named Emma Mauer and Daisy Capone and Hailey Scott and Tory Arbuckle. If you need to reach me to ask any questions, my email has been provided above as well as I am happy to share my phone number 647-507-1263, but please take down the Silent Beacon app in its entirety and investigate it thoroughly. It is highly illegal to unconsensually microchip women in particular in this manner and display their thoughts and violating ongoing and never paused or blurred videos of them showering or anything of the like throughout their entire lives on a phone screen for others to read aside from the person themselves who cannot connect to their own lack of command chips and thus an inferior pre-uploaded microchip. I am truly begging you to listen to myself as well as other friends who’ve also emailed - take it down before it results in even a greater loss of lives than the 20,050 people the people in charge of the apps brag that they’ve murdered or made too suicidal to carry on.

### 1/5 — Software and hardware doesn’t work

*2020-03-02, version 6.1*

We had to send it back, the hardware wouldn’t connect to numerous cellphones all approved as far as their mode numbers are concerned, and the app wouldn’t let us log in and wouldn’t let us register anew...... would’ve been great if it worked.....

### 1/5 — Buttons are too hard to push in for an older person.

*2019-05-23, version 5.0.21*

Had high hopes for this, but the amount of strength it takes to hold both buttons in to activate an alert is too much for an older person with arthritis. Called the company, they have nothing to fix this yet.

### 1/5 — Better apps out there

*2019-01-30, version 5.0.14*

Hard to use and too spammy. Doesn’t have the features needed to keep you safe. Panic alarm doesn’t cut it. A lot better safety apps available

### 1/5 — Horrible device

*2018-12-20*

The device worked for three days. I tried to reset it and the app states there is an app update. I’ve already downloaded this. I got mine from Touch of Modern and I’m asking for a refund.

### 1/5 — Hard to set up

*2018-12-10, version 5.0.8*

The instructions are terrible.. it's so hard to set up

### 1/5 — Innundated with spurious alerts from people I do not know

*2018-05-31, version 3.0.7*

I was unnundated yesterday evening with between 20 and 30 spurious alerts from people that I do not know and have removed this application from my Iphone.

### 1/5 — It’s Gone Crazy!

*2018-05-31, version 3.0.7*

Out of the blue tonight I have received over 20 messages from strangers needing help. I had to delete the app.

### 5/5 — Gets Better with time

*2024-10-18*

Thank you for contributing to healthcare safety!

### 5/5 — Five stars!

*2024-07-14*

I’ve had products from this company for about seven years and it keeps getting better and better, I’m very excited about the new application as well as the new 2.0 device. This has honestly been a lifesaver for my family.

### 5/5 — Great App! I feel safer with it!

*2024-07-11*

I have a beacon and the app. I feel safer knowing that I can call 911 and friends easily if I’m ever in danger.

### 5/5 — Silent Beacon is my new Best Friend!

*2024-07-09*

My grandmother is elderly and I wanted a way to be able to keep her safe. I ordered the Silent Beacon for her especially given the fact that she is alone most of the day. Because it is easy to use, she can let myself as well as my brother know when she is feeling unsafe. I called the customer service team at the beginning when we first purchased our beacon to make sure it was properly linked to the app. They were very helpful in answering my plethora of questions and always with a pleasant attitude. My grandmother means everything in the world to me and it makes me feel good that she has this reliable device to call on if needed.

### 5/5 — Reliable and easy to use

*2024-06-27*

The Silent Beacon 2.0 is an excellent choice for anyone concerned about personal safety, especially businesses who want or need to look out for their employees. Its combination of advanced technology, and user-friendly design sets it apart from other safety devices on the market in my opinion. I always make sure to have my beacon on my keychain when going out. It gives me a sense of relief.

### 5/5 — App Doesn’t Break, Device Works

*2024-06-26, version 10.10.0*

The SB 2.0 App has been much better than the original iteration. All I need in an app is for it not to crash and good UI, which I believe I’m getting with Silent Beacon.

### 5/5 — Great customer service & easy product

*2024-04-22, version 10.8.0*

Silent beacons customer service is exceptional! I bought their product off of Amazon from a third party seller and it ended up not working and I was unable to return it. Silent beacon sent me their newest version and was so helpful throughout the process. Their product is easy to use and allows me to feel safe when working with clients I don’t know. Highly recommend!!!

### 5/5 — Loved it

*2019-02-05*

Whenever my friends asked about the safety app, the app always comes in my mind. Because it has many features and fully protection. I have used many apps, but the silent beacon app is the number one app and amazing.

### 5/5 — Protect completely

*2019-01-24*

I have been using this product since one year and I used it many times when I am on emergency. My contacts got emergency call/sms/email with no time and respond quickly. The device has changed my life. Now I go anywhere without fear. Thanks Silent Beacon for protect my life completely.

### 5/5 — Amazing app

*2019-01-15*

You won’t find a better safety app anywhere else on the entire App Store. This app is absolutely amazing. I love how when you activate the button(emergency ON) for help then your contact get a call/text/email accordingly. The app provides a quick response and easy guidelines for use. I will recommend it personally for the safety.
