Find your people.
Anywhere.
Live location with the people you choose, a silent SOS, and a warning if a device keeps showing up wherever you go. Ghost Mode switches you off completely, any time.

Features
Everything your safety
network needs.
Live map
See your people
in real time.
A 360° compass-aware live map shows exactly where your friends and family are. Distance, bearing, and status updated every few seconds.
Emergency
One tap.
Everyone knows.
Press SOS once from the lock screen. Live location goes to trusted contacts in under one second.
Emergency
Privacy
Disappear
when you want.
Ghost Mode removes your location from the database entirely. No breadcrumbs. No logs. You vanish.
Ghost Mode

Drive Mode
Drive Mode
Know they
arrived safely.
Share a live trip for Uber, Lyft, or any drive. Speed, route, and ETA visible to your circle. Speed alerts trigger automatically.
Daylight
How long
until dark.
Worked out on your phone from the date and where you are. No network, no guesswork — and we will never tell you a place is safe, because that is not something an app can know.
Web dashboard
Your network
on any screen.
Live map, location history, active drives and walks — all in real time from any browser.
FollowCheck
Know when someone
is following you.
Bluetooth scanning tells you if the same unknown device keeps appearing near you across different places. Every sighting is logged with its time, distance and place, so you have a dated record you can show someone. Scanning is not exact — treat it as a prompt to take care, not as proof.
Security
Your privacy.
Our priority.
Built from the ground up for safety. Zero ads, zero data sales, and Ghost Mode that leaves no trace.
Encrypted in transit and at rest
Google Cloud encrypts your data on the wire and on disk. We are not end-to-end encrypted: our servers can read a location in order to deliver it to your circle, and we say so rather than implying otherwise.
Ghost Mode
One tap removes your location from the database entirely. No logs, no breadcrumbs, no traces.
Honest when the signal drops
The map keeps the last known position and says how old it is, instead of showing a stale dot as though it were live.
No ads. Ever.
No advertising SDKs, no data brokers, no selling location. The app will earn from subscriptions.
Consent-first
Both people confirm before any location is shared. Either can revoke anytime with one tap.
Delete everything
Your account and every trace of it: locations, history, friends, groups, alerts, devices. All that survives is a one-way hash of your email with a date, so a used free trial cannot be claimed twice — it holds no address and cannot be turned back into one.

FAQ
Questions, answered.
Is BesideSafe free?
Yes, and not as a trial. Every safety feature is free: the live map, SOS, FollowCheck, Timed Walk, Walk Me Home, Drive Mode, Ghost Mode, location history, groups. The only thing we plan to charge for is the web Command Center, and it is not on sale yet.
Can someone track me without my consent?
No. Sharing is two-sided — both people confirm before any location moves, and either can end it at any time. That is enforced on our servers, not just hidden in the app. Ghost Mode goes further and deletes your live location outright.
How accurate is the live location?
It is whatever your phone's GPS reports, and the app shows you that number rather than hiding it — you will see something like ±12 m beside your address. Indoors and between tall buildings it is worse, and the app says so instead of pretending.
Does it kill my battery?
It sleeps when you are still and wakes when you move, and it publishes less often on the free plan. We have not yet measured a full unplugged day across a range of handsets, so we are not going to quote you a percentage we cannot stand behind.
Where is my data stored?
In Google Firebase, with rules that let only you and the friends you have accepted read your location. It is encrypted on the wire and on disk, but it is not end-to-end encrypted: our servers can read a location in order to deliver it to your circle. We would rather say that than imply otherwise.
What happens when I press SOS?
The people you have chosen get a push notification with your live location and the time, and it keeps updating while the alert is on. You can cancel it yourself, and they see that you did. It does not record audio and it does not call the emergency services — it alerts the people in your circle.
