Beacon vs Alert

When a moment turns scary, one tap sends an SOS. Beacon alerts your trusted circle with your live location, gets you to a call fast, and can even fake an incoming call to help you slip away — plus a check-in timer so someone always knows you got there. Beacon is your quiet safety net — simple enough to reach for in a rush, private enough to trust completely. PANIC ALERT Hold to arm, then one tap prepares an SOS with your live tracking link for your trusted circle. One more tap sends. One more tap calls. A built-in Fake Call helps you step away from an uncomfortable situation without alerting anyone around you. LIVE LOCATION SHARE Send a private tracking link and let your trusted contact watch your dot move in real time. They open a link — no app needed on their end, no account, nothing to install. Sharing stops the moment you say you're safe. Nothing is ever stored. WATCH ME CHECK-IN Set a timer before you head out — a night walk, a first date, a rideshare home, a solo hike. Check in with one tap when you arrive. If you don't, Beacon gets your last known location ready to send to the people you chose. YOUR TRUSTED CIRCLE Add up to 5 contacts. They need no account and no app — they just get a text. You choose who hears about a Panic, a Watch Me, or both. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No account. No sign-up, ever. • No analytics, no ads, no tracking. • Your circle and settings live only on your device — visible to you, erasable any time. • Live location passes through an ephemeral relay and is never written to disk, never logged, gone the moment you stop. HONEST ABOUT HOW IT WORKS Beacon is a safety net, not a replacement for emergency services. In a real emergency, call your local emergency number first. iOS always asks you to tap Send — Beacon cannot text silently, by design. Personal safety since 2017 — years before iPhone added Check In. Still free. Still no account. ROIDS software — indie-built, privacy-first.
