RFYL is a free, anonymous community map of places that felt unsafe: an aggressive dog, harassment, someone following you, a path with no lights, a road with no pavement. Check it before you head out for a run, a walk or a hike. Pin it for the next person. KNOW BEFORE YOU GO • See what people reported around you, colour-coded by severity • Filter by type, severity and how recent it is • Tap a pin for the details: what happened, when, and whether it is still a problem PIN IT IN SECONDS • Tap PIN HERE, drop the pin on the exact spot, pick a category and severity • Add a short note if it helps • Missing a category? Suggest one NO ACCOUNT, NO TRACKING • Nothing to sign up for and no personal data collected • Your location stays on your phone; only the pin's coordinates are shared • No ads, no analytics, no third-party tracking KEPT HONEST BY THE COMMUNITY • Every pin asks "Still a problem? Yes / No" — pins fade when the problem is gone • Anyone can request removal of a pin; every request is reviewed • Pins describe places, never people SHARE A SPOT • Send a pin to a friend with one tap, whether or not they have the app Made for anyone who runs, walks or hikes alone — especially women — RFYL is built on one idea: if you knew, you would have taken the other path. Now you can know. RFYL is made by The Bad Lemon.
