Read full description

Friends, family and professional helpers become reachable with the push of a button. In case of an emergency, they'll know right away who needs help and where it's needed. Simply create your own SafeNow groups or use SafeNow in public SafeNow Zones. DECIDE WHO GETS YOUR ALARM The most relevant helpers are often people you trust and who are close by. Connect with others in SafeNow groups and decide for yourself who should get your alarm in case of emergency. LOCATION SHARING WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS Sometimes you just want to know the people close to you are okay. With Location Sharing, you can see your groups on the map in everyday life - not just in emergencies. For each group, decide whether your location is private, always visible in real time, or visible on demand. With On Demand, you'll be notified whenever someone looks, so nothing happens behind your back. PUSH THE BUTTON WHEN YOU NEED HELP Press and hold the SafeNow button when you feel uncomfortable. As long as you keep your finger on the button, SafeNow is active. If your finger leaves the screen, an alarm is triggered immediately. You can disarm the button at any time if you are fine again. DON'T MISS WHEN IT REALLY MATTERS (ALWAYS-LOUD MODE) We often miss calls and messages because we are too busy or don't know that they are truly important. As one of the few apps selected by Apple, SafeNow can play a loud sound even when your phone is silent or on "do not disturb”. By using "always-loud mode” you don’t miss an alarm when it's really important. REACH PROFESSIONAL HELPERS IN SAFENOW ZONES Within a public SafeNow Zone, you can reach professional helpers on site. The app automatically displays when you're in a SafeNow Zone and tells you if helpers are available. SafeNow Zones are provided by companies and institutions to make their venues safer for their guests. SafeNow allows to protect areas that are usually difficult or impossible to monitor (such as restrooms or hotel rooms) can be covered. YOUR DATA. YOUR PRIVACY. Your data will only be used to enable your helpers to better find you. Your location is exclusively shared with your helpers during alarms. We don't run ads nor make money off your personal data. Instead, SafeNow is funded by public SafeNow Zone providers who care about offering their guests a safe feeling across their venue. SEND ALARMS FASTER WITH THE SAFENOW WIDGET Never waste time searching for the app when seconds matter. The new SafeNow Widget lets you add a shortcut to your home or lock screen. Simply place the widget where it’s most convenient, and with a single tap, the app opens instantly — ready for you to send an alarm. LET’S MAKE THE WORLD SAFER. TOGETHER. We believe feeling safe and free should be a common good for everyone. That's why SafeNow is and will stay free forever. With every SafeNow Group or Zone created, people are choosing to take better care of each other out of love and caring. Join the movement, download the SafeNow App and share it with everyone you care about! For more information, check out our website at www.safenow.app
