## What is Urgent Alert?

Your trusted contacts are your first line of defense. Urgent Alert lets you reach the people who matter most the moment you feel unsafe — with alerts that break through Do Not Disturb and Silent Mode. Not a replacement for 911. A direct line to your people.

SOS
Send a critical alert to a trusted contact that bypasses Do Not Disturb and Silent Mode. Their phone sounds an alarm at full volume for up to 3 minutes. They must confirm they saw it — if they don't respond, you know right away.

HELP REQUEST
Share your live location trail with one or more contacts. They see exactly where you are on a map in real time. Recipients can tap "I'm on my way" so you know help is coming.

CHECK-IN TIMER
Set a timer before heading out. If you don't dismiss it in time, your emergency contacts are automatically alerted. Perfect for solo runs, late-night walks, or first dates.

WALK MODE
Activate Walk Mode and select contacts. The app watches your movement — if you stop for too long, it checks on you. No response? Your contacts are alerted with your location.

SAFE ARRIVAL
Set a destination and contacts. When you arrive within the radius, your contacts are notified. If you don't make it by your expected time, alerts escalate automatically.

EMERGENCY INFO
Store your blood type, allergies, medications, and medical conditions. Share this info with your trusted connections when it matters most.

WORKS WHEN IT MATTERS MOST
- Critical Alerts bypass Do Not Disturb and Silent Mode
- Offline queue sends alerts as soon as connection is restored
- Live Activities and Dynamic Island keep sessions visible on your Lock Screen
- Home Screen Widgets for one-tap emergency access
- Real-time status: see when your contact is viewing or heading your way

BUILT AROUND TRUST
Urgent Alert uses a mutual connection system. Both people must accept a connection before they can send or receive alerts. You decide who can reach you. Block anyone at any time.

WHO IT'S FOR
- Solo travelers and backpackers
- Night commuters and late-shift workers
- Parents and caregivers
- Outdoor enthusiasts and hikers
- Anyone building a personal safety network

YOUR PRIVACY
No ads. No third-party trackers. Location is shared only during active sessions and only with the contacts you choose. Delete your account and all your data anytime.
