GetHomeSafeA phone call that sounds real, whenever you need one
Walking home alone at night? GetHomeSafe rings your phone with a real-sounding call from your boyfriend, your dad or your roommate. Talk back, and he waits for you to finish. Nobody walking behind you has any reason to doubt it.
Three taps between you and a call
Pick who calls
Your boyfriend, your dad or your roommate. Each one has their own voice and their own way of talking.
Put your phone away
Choose a delay, pocket your phone, and keep walking. Nobody sees you set it up.
Answer and talk
Your iPhone rings like any other call. Answer it, talk, and he talks back and waits whenever you speak.
It has to be believable. So it is.
A real iPhone call
It rings on the lock screen, with the iPhone ringtone and the iPhone call screen. It looks exactly like a call from someone you know.
He waits for you
The call listens for when you stop talking, so he never talks over you. Your voice is never recorded or sent anywhere.
Panic phrase
One tap and the caller says he can see your location and is two minutes away, loud enough for anyone near you to hear.
SOS, one tap away
Your local emergency number, always one tap from the home screen, for when it is more than a feeling.
Works without signal
Every voice is built into the app, so it works on an empty street with one bar or none at all.
Nothing to sign up for
No phone number, no email, no account. Everything stays on your phone.
GetHomeSafe is completely free. For everyone. Always.
There is no call limit and nothing locked behind a payment, because feeling safe on the way home shouldn’t cost anything. If the app helps you, you can choose to support it with a subscription. It pays for the running costs and keeps it free for everyone who can’t pay.
Questions
Is it really free?
Yes. Every feature and every call is free, with no limits. The subscription is optional support for the app; it doesn’t unlock anything.
Does the app record what I say?
No. During a call the app only reads how loud the microphone is, on your phone, to know when you have stopped talking. Nothing is recorded, transcribed or sent anywhere.
Do I need an account?
No. There are no accounts at all. The app works from the first launch, and everything stays on your phone.
Will people around me know it’s fake?
They shouldn’t. It rings as a real iPhone call, the voices sound natural, with real pauses, and the caller waits for your answers like a real person would.
Which languages does it speak?
English and Czech. The calls speak whichever language the app is set to.
