Current Features

Personal safety app features built for response

See the Guardian capabilities developed and under active testing in India: emergency triggers, live incident context, nearby dispatch, responder controls and reliability workflows.

For the person in danger

Current victim-side capabilities developed in Guardian.

SOS

App + wearable trigger

One-tap SOS from the Android app and triple-tap SOS through the Guardian Ring / wearable trigger flow.

Live safety

Live location streaming

Location keeps updating as the person moves, including moving-SOS scenarios.

Evidence

Audio + black box

Timestamped audio evidence during SOS plus pre-SOS black-box recording for the minutes before activation.

Control

PIN + false-alarm cancel

PIN protection prevents unwanted alert ending. A 30-second false-alarm cancel stands responders down after accidental triggers.

Awareness

Danger-zone safety checks

Entering a flagged unsafe area prompts a safety check and can auto-raise SOS if not dismissed.

Contacts

Trusted-contact SMS

Trusted contacts receive an SMS with live tracking link, with offline escalation for contact alerts.

For community responders

Current responder-side capabilities designed to mobilize nearby help.

Alarm alert

Silent-mode notification

Nearby-alert notifications use the alarm audio stream and can wake the phone screen when an alert arrives.

Dashboard

Map, distance and actions

Responder dashboard includes live map, distance-to-victim, Navigate, Call, and Share buttons.

Moving SOS

Intercept guidance

If the victim is moving, Guardian shows heading, speed, and intercept guidance while recruiting fresh responders ahead.

Closure

3-responder safe confirmation

Location-verified “I’m with the victim — they’re safe” requires 3 on-scene responders before auto-closing.

Responder safety

I need help too

Responders can raise their own SOS if they run into danger, and can withdraw if they can no longer help.

Stand-down

False-alarm clarity

False-alarm stand-down is clearly shown so responders do not waste time after retraction.

System, admin, privacy and ring experience

Dispatch

Radius expansion

Admin-controlled start and max radius, step-by-step widening, duplicate-alert prevention, multi-victim handling, and backup-alert exclusion.

Admin

Live operations controls

Admin dashboard with live statistics, instant global configuration, user management, per-user SOS test mode, and test-user deletion.

Security

Firebase security model

Firebase Authentication, Firestore server-side rules, tamper-protected alert identity/timing fields, default-deny access, and input validation.

Privacy

DPDP-aligned consent

In-app Privacy & Consent notice aligned to India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023.

Maps

Native stitched map tiles

OpenStreetMap tiles rendered natively in-app, with tap-to-open support in the full map app.

Ring SOS

Discreet wearable trigger

Guardian Ring is designed as a fast, private emergency trigger with triple-tap SOS activation and confirmation feedback through the app-connected wearable experience.
