Headz Up

Battery Disclaimer: Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.

The Headz Up! mobile app has been developed by The Crazy Peacock to help improve the safety of those who pursue an active lifestyle. Headz Up! provides an extra measure of safety for those who may not come in contact with people during an activity they are engaged in (for ex., off road cycling). It does this by the following:

• Sending a text alert to an identified emergency contact indicating that the user has not moved in a set number of minutes. The set number of minutes is selected by the user.
• Providing the emergency contact with a map view that displays the GPS location of the non-moving user.
• In the event the user begins moving again, Headz Up! will send a follow up message to the emergency contact indicating that the user has begun moving again.

While the app can be downloaded at no charge, use of the app as designed requires purchasing an annual subscription. This is because the app relies on a third party to send the emergency alerts (since they are not initiated by the user), and therefore creates charges based on use.
