We exist to make your world a safer place. The all-new WalkSafe+ app provides safety at your fingertips, giving you the tools to make informed decisions about your personal safety.
KEY FEATURES
- Journey planner: Plan your journeys and save your favourite locations for easy access.
- Trusted friend circle: Build a trusted circle of friends who can view your location and share their own journeys. No one outside of your trusted circle will be able to see your location, not strangers or big brother.
- Street crime reports: Visualise serious street crime reports as icons with the WalkSafe Map, all information is based on verified police crime data.
- Community safety: Help others by posting safety icons to the WalkSafe map. All community icons are verified by admins to uphold user safety.
- Hotspot Alerts: Get alerts when you walk near areas that have seen reports of serious crimes such as knife attacks, sexual assault, violent attacks and muggings.
- SOS button: Alert ALL of your trusted friends even if they are not viewing your location.
PERSONAL SAFETY TOOLS
No one can predict where the next crime will be. However, we believe being informed and staying alert is the key to staying safer.
We use up-to-date, accurate, and verified police data, empowering you with street safety information. The app will help you choose the safest routes while walking, spot patterns in criminal behaviour, and stay safe.
- HomeSafe: Protect yourself and protect others with HomeSafe. Set a specific place and a specific time, and share your journey plan with loved ones. If you don't successfully complete your journey, your loved ones are notified. (This feature is non-location sharing).
- WalkSafe Journeys: Going somewhere? WalkSafe journeys differ from HomeSafe by allowing you to share your location with your trusted friends. Your location will update in real-time allowing your loved ones to keep you safe on your journey.
- Follow Me: Walking the dog? Going for a run? Just wandering? Follow Me allows you to start a journey with no destination in mind. Simply select a length of time to share your location for and select friends to keep you safe then you're good to go!
- Activity Map: Our map shows police and WalkSafe community reports of dangers such as knife crime, sexual assault & mugging. WalkSafe automatically alerts you when you walk near these dangers. Use this information to plan safer routes and post live updates in your local area. Be a part of the growing community to stay informed and safer.
