Companion App

Des'Ree Holmes

I love it so far. Great for when you're walking home alone or going somewhere different than usual.

I recommend anyone with unreliable means of transportation to download this app. It's a great way to update my friends and family about my trip home. The destination functions are simple and straightforward, the added features ('I am nervous' and 'Call Police' button, 'am I ok?' Update) are genius, and the final text update upon my arrival home is the cherry on top. You won't be bombarded with notifications at all and the fact that it allows me to be more aware of my surroundings of letting my love ones themselves check the status of my route home rather then I constantly texting/calling on my phone makes it a great app.

Really like it!

Hey girl gal chick!!

Thank you so much for the adding the option to select other transportation modes. As a single woman in a large city, walking isn't always a smart and safe option, but I'd still like to have a companion along for the ride. The update give me a more accurate estimate of how long it will take me to get home. I also like to wander option. Sometime you don't have a destination and it's great to have a way to feel safe and not alone. You have come up with a wonderful app that just keep improving! Thank you so much!!

Question

I feel like since this app is suppose to help someone in need y doesn't it work without wifi or any form of Internet connection

Great app

I really like this app because even if I'm walking alone I don't feel that way. I use it often. But would there be a way to add a loop feature? I also use it when I walk my dog but it's not really designed to loop back around to your starting position. Either way though, great app. I like how my "companions" don't need the app installed for it to work.

Awesome!

Took a star away because my watchful companions have to load the app for me to use them as my contacts. Great app! My "Watchers" love the realtime GPS tracking. I am usually alone when I travel, so this makes me feel safer!

Love it

Just wish I could easily add people to become my companions after I'm already in the app. Needs to be in settings

A Must have!

The app is great, the only feature I think should be added is the ability to remove companions. When I downloaded the app I didn't realize I would be sending notifications to all of my friends. It's annoying to me and extremely annoying to my friends.

Accurate

Pinarrrrrrr

This app is amazing it moves with you and it's super accurate. This helps anyone who is worried about you while you're outside in scary NYC lol.

Feeling safe

I love how safe I felt knowing my friends and family were watching me! The tracking is a bit off though, my brothers thought I was drunk by the way the line swayed at one point. Also an improvement would be allowing the app to work in someway without wifi. My friend called to make sure I was okay and no one else could see where I was walking to.
