CarryAware is a real-time situational awareness tool built for lawful concealed-carry permit holders. The app monitors your GPS location and alerts you when you are approaching or entering locations where firearms are legally restricted or prohibited under state law — including schools, government buildings, courts, hospitals, and airports.

Carrying a firearm near a restricted location can result in serious legal consequences, even when done unintentionally. CarryAware helps you stay informed and compliant by delivering proactive, location-based alerts before you enter a sensitive area.
