About this app

!!! SafeZone app is only available at organizations using the SafeZone solution !!!

SafeZone connects you directly to your organization's response team when you need help.

When you are in any SafeZone area designated by your organization, you will be able to:
• get help in an Emergency,
• get help when you or someone near you needs First Aid,
• contact the response team for Help in less urgent situations,
• Check-In to share your status with the response team when working alone, access safety tips and advice relevant to your location,
• access tailored mental health and wellbeing resources provided by your organization and community, and
• receive Emergency Notifications and guidance during critical incidents.

The SafeZone service is specific to geographical areas that have been defined by your organization. You can find out what areas are covered by tapping the "Regions" menu item in the app. When you raise an Alert (Emergency, First Aid or Help), response team members will be alerted to your situation and location so that they can coordinate to help you quickly and effectively.

SafeZone will operate at any location, however if you press and Alert button when you are outside one of the defined areas, your app will tell you you're outside the SafeZone area and offer you a single-tap call to the local emergency services number.

Where your organization provides safety shuttle buses, you can also see the real-time bus locations inside SafeZone.

Ratings and reviews

won't allow sign-in, won't allow sign-up with existing account. needs too many permissions. an overcomplicated solution for a problem that organisations don't want to address themselves. whatever they charge universities/companies for license is somehow not enough to hire a decent software team to make it work on all devices.

Initially when I selected "Information", I got a "Web page not available" error. It took me a while to work out that the app didn't have network permissions - it would make sense to raise a specific error message about that. Also, it seems broken for the app to rely on access to a web page instead of having information within the app.

(Android). It took me several attempts to sign in. I only enabled the app to use location when app is in use. So I kept getting the notification to change that. But that wasn't my problem with my app. Whenever the app opened it tried to raise an alarm I then had to cancel. I uninstalled the app now as I was way too scared I wouldn't be realise it in time at some point and it will go through.
