STANAGEGO

Helping more people get outside, and home safe.

An iPhone app for anyone heading out on a walk. You tell it when you'll be back. If you're not back and don't answer a check-in, it texts the people you chose with your live location, so someone knows where to look.

Before

Plan the walk and set a back-by time.

During

A live timer, check-ins and one UPDATE button.

If late

Answer "Are you OK?" or your contacts get a text and a map.

01 · BEFORE

Plan a walk and set your return time.

Tell it where you're going and when you expect to be back. Pick a saved route or type a destination, choose how long it will take, and the app works out a back-by time.

Sunset sits next to it, so you can see if you're cutting it fine. Check your contacts are set, then press start.

02 · DURING

Next turn, time left.

While you walk the map turns with you and a big arrow shows the next turn. A ring counts down to your back-by time. Press UPDATE to check in or add time.

Past your time

When your back-by time passes you get a yellow alert. Only if you don't answer in 30 minutes do your contacts hear anything.

No signal

Download the area before you go, so the map, route and turns still work. Check-ins go by text when there's no data.

03 · CHECKS

Check in on the way, check out at the end.

Set a back-by time before you start. Press UPDATE on the way to check in or add time. It goes by data, or by text when there's no signal. Back at the car, end the walk to check out.

Yellow alert

Past your back-by time, only you are asked if you're OK. Extend, or end the walk.

Red alert

No answer after 30 minutes and your contacts get a text with your last grid reference and a live map link.

04 · SOS

Your grid reference, laid out to be read aloud.

One press texts your contacts and opens a screen with your OS grid reference in big figures, ready to give to the emergency services so they know where to come.

Who has been told

It shows who has been told and when, and re-sends your location.

No signal

Texts queue and retry every 60 seconds. The offline map and grid reference still work.

The people you choose

If you miss a check-in they get a text with your live location and a map link. They don't need the app.

Home safe

End the walk and they know you're back. Tracking and the map link stop at once.

Your data

Location is tracked only while a walk is running. No adverts, and your data is never sold.
