Safety Disclaimer
What Safer is, what it isn't, and how to stay safe using it.
In a life-threatening emergency, always call your local emergency number (such as 911) first. Safer is a communication tool, not an emergency service.
What Safer is
Safer is a personal safety communication tool. It helps you alert the people you trust, share your live location, and give them real-time context so they can understand what's happening and respond faster.
What Safer is not
- Safer is not a replacement for emergency services, police, fire, ambulance, or medical care.
- Safer does not automatically dispatch professional responders to your location.
- Safer does not guarantee that any person will see, receive, or act on an alert.
Things that can affect reliability
Because Safer runs on your phone and the internet, several factors outside our control can affect how it works:
- Device battery, settings, and permissions (location, microphone, notifications).
- Mobile signal, Wi-Fi, and network connectivity.
- GPS and location accuracy in your surroundings.
- Whether your trusted contacts are available and able to respond.
Using Safer responsibly
- Keep your trusted contacts up to date and let them know they're part of your circle.
- Allow location, notification, and microphone permissions so features can work.
- Test the app with a trusted contact so you both know what an alert looks like.
- Never rely on Safer as your only safety plan.
Safer is designed to help the people who care about you respond faster — it works best alongside, not instead of, official emergency services.
