Full description

BuddySOS puts your whole group on one live map, so you always know where your people are. Built for festivals, group trips, hikes, nights out, and families with a mix of iPhone and Android, BuddySOS is a cross-platform group safety app and a real alternative to Find My Friends and Life360. WHAT YOU GET - One live group map with distance and direction to each person - One-tap SOS that alerts your whole group with your live location - SMS escalation that texts your emergency contacts your location (they do not need the app installed) - Safe zones that send a push when someone enters or leaves an area you draw on the map - Live location sharing across iPhone and Android on the same map - Sign in with just a phone number, no email or social login EVERY SAFETY FEATURE IS FREE SOS, SMS escalation, live location sharing, and safe-zone alerts are free on every tier. Many location and family tracker apps put emergency features behind a monthly subscription. BuddySOS does not. PRIVACY BY DESIGN BuddySOS keeps no location history. There is no stored trail of where anyone has been, and we never sell location data. FREE AND PREMIUM BuddySOS is free to use with ads. An optional subscription removes ads and unlocks more groups and safe zones. Every safety-critical feature stays free. Great for festival safety, group hikes, family location sharing, and keeping a crew together at crowded events. Download BuddySOS and get your group on one live map today.
