Description
!!! SafeZone app is only available at organizations using the SafeZone solution !!!
!!! You MUST use your organizational email (University or Work) in order to sign up !!!
SafeZone is a FREE app that connects you directly to your organization's response team when you need help.
When you are in any SafeZone area designated by your organization, you will be able to:
• Get help in an Emergency,
• Get help when you or someone near you needs First Aid,
• Contact the response team for Help in less urgent situations,
• Check-In to share your status with the response team when working alone, access safety tips and advice relevant to your location, and
• Receive Emergency Notifications and guidance during critical incidents.
The SafeZone service is specific to geographical areas that have been defined by your organization. You can find out what areas are covered by tapping the "Regions" menu item in the app. When you raise an Alert (Emergency, First Aid or Help), response team members will be alerted to your situation and location so that they can coordinate to help you quickly and effectively.
SafeZone will operate at any location, however if you press and Alert button when you are outside one of the defined areas, your app will tell you you're outside the SafeZone area and offer you a single-tap call to the local emergency services number.
Where your organization provides safety shuttle buses, you can also see the real-time bus locations inside SafeZone.

Ratings and Reviews
Good idea, poorly executed
I am required to check in for my course and to use this app. The fact that it needs continuous access to my location instead of letting me input a timesheet of is ludicrous.
The app crashes whenever I press check in timer (not sure what the button is for)
Very useful app but here is one suggestion…
Just now I used the app and managed to contact the security of the school to help me out for a non-emergency case. However, I notice that the app would not allow me to call them only but will set off the alarm by default under category of “help”, which is not emergency level. And the security was questioning me why I set off the alarm for a normal case…I was very embarrassed since I didn’t want that either. T_T I do see the different options there on the main page for different level of emergency cases. But unfortunately I have to trigger the alarm from the “help” option, which is compulsory. Ideally it would be helpful if you could give the user the choice to decide whether or not to set off the alarm for non-emergency cases, so that it would not create unnecessary panic among the people and the security team. Just for your notice. Still, good app to support people experiencing potential threatening and inconvenience. Also really appreciate our school security team from UOB ❤️.
Good but immense battery draining
The idea of the app is very good, my organisation uses it. But the fact that it requires Always On location services drains my battery too quickly. Last time I checked battery info Safezone used 40% of my batter in the background in a period of 24 hours, and that’s on an iPhone 13 Pro Max with a relatively bigger battery.
There used to be an option to manually “check in” but that no more works if the Always On location prompt is turned off. For that i’d choose not to use the app anymore.
