JCUSafe is the official safety app of James Cook University (JCU). It is the only app that integrates with JCU's safety and security systems and provides, in one location, information on the University's security and safety plans and wellbeing resources. The unique app provides students and staff with safety information and features for James Cook University campuses including important safety alerts.

JCUSafe’s features include:
- Alert Security: Send your location to JCU Security and talk to them, in real-time, in case of an emergency on campus.
- Chat with Campus Security: Communicate live with JCU Security staff via chat.
- Emergency Contacts: Contact the correct services for the JCU campus areas in case of an emergency or a non-emergency concern.
- Safety Notifications: Receive instant notifications and instructions from JCU Safety when on-campus emergencies occur.
- Friend Walk: Send your location to a friend through email or SMS on your device. Once the friend accepts the Friend Walk request, the user picks their destination and their friend tracks their location in real time; they can keep an eye on them to make sure they make it safely to their destination.
- Virtual Security Escort: Allow JCU Security to monitor a user’s walk. If a user feels unsafe when walking on campus, they can request a Virtual Security Escort and a dispatcher on the other end will monitor their journey until they reach their destination.
