About this app

WalkSafe+ is the UK's leading personal safety app which combines journey-sharing features and a national Safe Space map. The map plots safety-trained venues across the UK in partnership with Local Authorities and Businesses that offer safety facilities such as phone charging stations and free period products, enabling our users to find help in real-time while on their commute home. WalkSafe+ has a suite of tracking and non-tracking features available, which enables trusted friends to follow your live journey should you need it.


With WalkSafe+ you can…
• See safe space settings across the country that have been trained in Ask for Angela, Best Bar None, or Active Bystander (to name a few) so you can enjoy a safer experience out with friends and family.
• Share local community concerns with the WalkSafe+ map to alert other users of issues such as poor lighting, large crowds, or restricted road access.
• Find live nighttime support within your local community such as street marshalls/ pastors/angels on the WalkSafe+ map.
• Build your trusted circle of Friends, who can view your location or ETA when you choose to share it and share their own journeys. Functionality includes automatic notifications of a user’s last known location.
• Activate the SOS button, alerting all of your trusted friends of your live location.

Ratings and reviews

it is a great idea but doesn't work. when i click 'track me' nothing happens. when i click 'emergency' my contact gets it hours later and sometimes they get the emergency alert despite no activation from me. its fundamentally broken which is not acceptable for a safety app. ive had (and updated) it on my phone for over a year and it contributes less then just walking down the street with a literal brick. for android users: there are safety features in your phone - look it up! theyre 1000X better

It's okay, but there needs to be an option to select what type of public transport you're taking. I take the train every day and since the tracking only follows roads, the time of arrival is always wildly innaccurate. In addition, I never get notifications asking if I've arrived home so often forget to stop my journey.

Great app. brilliant idea. I have a few issues with the view. The button at the bottom of the screen on a Samsung s24 when signing up or wanting to tap sos is hidden. I have screenshots if needed.
