2. Safe Trek
“The way Safe Trek works is simple - if you are
feeling unsafe, simply launch the app and hold
your thumb down on the safe button. When you
are safe, release your thumb and type in your 4
digit pin number. If the situation turns for the
worse and you need help, simply release your
thumb and do not type in your pin - your local
police will be notified of your location, name,
and emergency” - Safe Trek

3. bSafe
bSafe is a personal safety application that
turns your phone into a GPS based panic
button. You can program your phone to
automatically notify your family, 911, or your
friends of your exact location with the push
of a button. It can also be setup to “fake call
you” which could be rather handy during a
bad first date or in an uncomfortable
situation.
