About this app

Why Guardians?

Exploring new places, walking home alone, meeting someone you don’t know, taking a late night cab ride - these are some things that can make us feel unsafe, especially for women. In 2021, we all have phones, and now that can be our line of defense.

By choosing trusted people as your Guardians, and allowing them to see where you are, you can have peace of mind, and protection in case anything goes wrong.


Features:

• Invite your friends & family to be your Guardians. Choose the people you trust to see your location when needed.
• Share your GPS location privately. Only your Guardians will be able to see where you are and check on your safety.
• Setup forever sharing. You can choose to share your location permanently to certain trusted people.
• Notify your Guardians immediately when you are feeling unsafe, using the I need help feature
• Battery life, network strength and phone status can also be shared. This can be vital information for your Guardians and your safety.

Great intent but location jumps all over the place within 300 foot of the location the person is at, even when device hasn't moved for 5+minutes -- jumping shouldn't be happening because if GPS doesn't jump around when moving and sharing your location of local friends in other apps that has a GPS feature, then this also shouldn't be jumping around. It's connected to 4G/5G locations and also has wifi enabled at all times, and even has blue tooth enabled on devices too but still 'jumps'. FIX!

It's more than just conventional location sharing through navigation apps, as it: 1. Has 3 different buttons in widgets for SOS, Watch Me and Watch Contact, as opposed to one, giving more granular control. 2. Has an evolving volunteer network that's ready to help in case you feel unsafe and hit SOS. 3. Displays important information such as phone's battery percentage, ringing status, signal strength, speed, pin/unpin location & a direct calling & messaging button in an easy to read manner.

The app is good, and its integration with Google map is fantastic. But I would suggest you add satellite map type, where the pictures and colours of locations are clearly shown. I would have loved to suggest you remove the option of not sharing one's location with his/her guardians, because that's the essence of the app, but other users might not buy into it. Is it possible to use the app to track one's guardians' phone in case of theft or loss? Even if the phone has been flashed by the thief?
