Bubble

An invite-only group.

Nobody joins without an invitation. Each Bubble has its own sharing choice, and every location shows when it was last updated.

I’M SAFE Journey Updates setup with neutral quick picks and a choice of when updates end

Journey

Share one trip.

Invited people can follow your progress until you end the Journey. It is not monitoring, and it does not promise arrival.

Zones

Arrival updates you set up.

Save a place such as home or work and let chosen Bubble members get an update when you arrive or leave. Updates depend on sharing, location data and notification settings.

Share live location · Included free

Meet up.
Leave the link behind.

Share a live-location link for one, three or seven hours. Your friend can open it in a browser, without joining your Bubble.

  • Just your shared location

    Your Bubbles, history and other people stay separate.

  • You decide when it ends

    Stop early, or let the link expire automatically. Expiry does not confirm you are safe.

FAQs

Your questions, answered.

Staying connected should leave room for privacy. Choose your people, and choose when you share.

Do I need to buy a device?

No. The app is free and works on its own. A Bluetooth SOS Tag adds a physical button that works through a nearby paired phone. A Personal Alarm is a separate siren and needs no phone or app.

Who can see my location?

When you share with a Bubble, its members can see your eligible location. A live-location link is different: anyone holding that link can view the location until it ends. Granting your phone’s location permission does not by itself share your location with a Bubble. Go Private to stop new updates, or leave the Bubble.

What does SOS actually do?

SOS alerts the eligible Bubble contacts you selected and shares your live location while the alert is active. I’M SAFE does not contact emergency services. In immediate danger, call your local emergency number.

What if a location has not updated?

Check the timestamp first. Connection, battery, permissions and phone settings all affect updates. A last-known location is not confirmation of where someone is now.

Can we use different types of phone?

Yes. I’M SAFE works across iPhone and Android. Some tools differ by platform: Fake Call is Android only, and Vault and Travel Insights are Plus features on iPhone and Android.
