At Anjel, we understand how important safety is to you–and we are here to help. Our application is built on one simple concept: working together to keep each other safe. Users like you create an interactive map that records individual safety experiences and determines the safety rating of locations across the globe. Users can subscribe and personalize an alert feature which will warn them upon entering an unsafe area. Free use of the app includes having access to the map’s rating system and viewing your current safety status, which can be shared with family or friends. Honesty is our best policy: Anjel users set up a profile and post a safety rating of their geographic locations using three color coded categories: Safe, Caution, and Danger. Each category has a selection of icons that can be used to describe each individual experience in that location. We are counting on you to help provide the most reliable and up to date information. By creating a profile, you can view safety ratings in your area and mark them as True or False. You can also comment on existing posts in order to share your own experiences in that location. Don’t worry! You can stay anonymous if you want. You may purchase an auto-renewing subscription through an In-App Purchase. • Your subscription will be charged to your iTunes account at confirmation of purchase and will automatically renew (at the duration selected) unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. • Current subscription may not be cancelled during the active subscription period; however, you can manage your subscription and/or turn off auto-renewal by visiting your iTunes Account Settings after purchase • Privacy policy: http://18.216.195.252/privacy • Terms of use(EULA): http://18.216.195.252/terms-of-use
