### 5/5 — This is Brilliant!

*2023-03-04, version 2.7*

I have daughters in the dating scene and it is amazing to know where they are at and that they are safe and link has helped ensure that!

### 5/5 — Helpful for More Than Just Dates

*2023-02-27, version 2.7*

There are plenty of good reasons why someone might want others to know where they are and that they’re okay. Link is a terrific and versatile app!

### 5/5 — As a woman, I feel so much safer now!

*2023-02-25, version 2.7*

In the past I’ve had to jump through weird hoops to let a friend know if I was solo hiking, going on a date with someone I didn’t know, or road tripping.

Link makes it so easy to let a friend know my whereabouts and if I’m safe. 

This world is not safe. All teenagers and women should be using Link imo.
