An SOS button that alerts the people you trust

Your location keeps updating

While an SOS is active, your location keeps updating for the groups that received it, including in the background and when the app is closed. For that to work, ImSafe needs Location permission set to Always. It stops the moment you cancel.

Everyone, or just one group

You can alert all your groups or only one of them, so an SOS reaches the people who can actually help.

An optional PIN, so it's really you

You can set an SOS PIN in Settings. Once it's set, cancelling an SOS needs the PIN, so your group knows it was you who called it off and not someone holding your phone. Without one, Cancel SOS works straight away.

Not a replacement for emergency services

ImSafe alerts the people in your group. It doesn't contact the emergency services, so call your local emergency number if you're in danger.

When to use it

Use SOS when you need the people you trust to know, right now, that something is wrong and where you are. That might be feeling unsafe walking home, being followed, a medical problem when you're alone, a car breakdown somewhere unfamiliar, or getting separated from your group in a crowd.

If you're in danger, call your local emergency number as well. ImSafe gets your own people moving while you do.

What your group sees

Everyone in the group gets an SOS notification straight away. Opening it shows who sent it and their location on the map, updating as they move. Each person can tap Acknowledge, and the sender sees who has seen the alert, so they know help is on the way and from whom.

When the SOS is cancelled, the group is told it's over and live location sharing stops.

Built so it's there when you need it

The SOS button is on the Home screen, not buried in a menu. Sliding or holding it means it's quick to send on purpose but hard to send by accident in a pocket or bag. Because ImSafe doesn't track you the rest of the time, the alert stands out when it comes, and your group knows it matters.
