About this app

!!! SafeZone app is only available at organizations using the SafeZone solution !!!

SafeZone connects you directly to your organization's response team when you need help.

When you are in any SafeZone area designated by your organization, you will be able to:
• get help in an Emergency,
• get help when you or someone near you needs First Aid,
• contact the response team for Help in less urgent situations,
• Check-In to share your status with the response team when working alone, access safety tips and advice relevant to your location, and
• receive Emergency Notifications and guidance during critical incidents.

The SafeZone service is specific to geographical areas that have been defined by your organization. You can find out what areas are covered by tapping the "Regions" menu item in the app. When you raise an Alert (Emergency, First Aid or Help), response team members will be alerted to your situation and location so that they can coordinate to help you quickly and effectively.

SafeZone will operate at any location, however if you press and Alert button when you are outside one of the defined areas, your app will tell you you're outside the SafeZone area and offer you a single-tap call to the local emergency services number.

Where your organization provides safety shuttle buses, you can also see the real-time bus locations inside SafeZone.

See www.safezoneapp.com for more information, including our user guide and FAQ.

Doesn't work as it thinks it's being optimised when it isn't. When trying to use the check in feature, it asks me to turn off battery optimisation for this app by clicking on the settings button on the notification. When I click that, I get a list of apps but the SafeZone app is not in there. I deactivated optimisation via the system settings and tryed again but I get the same error. So there doesn't seem to be a way to tell the app that it isn't being optimised which means it doesn't work.

Hi there! After clicking the "Settings" button and being presented with an (empty) list of apps, you will need to change the list from "Optimised" To "Not Optimised" (or similar) and then search for "SafeZone". The exact steps are different depending on the model and OS version. If you still have issues let us know at support@criticalarc.com.

It does work pretty well, but if I want to use the automatic check in then it forces a banner notification saying "ready to check in". This is quite annoying and I've tried several different ways on the notification section of the device settings but have not managed to remove it. EDIT AFTER DEVELOPER RESPONSE : Many thanks for you response. Having played around with it I have found a work around to not being able to dismiss it - swipe on it, go to manage notifications, turn it off then on again

Thanks for your positive feedback! (original response removed for character limit) UPDATE: Glad you found a work around, but note that you may find the app can no longer update your location in the background after some time, but bringing it into the foreground will resume updating. Take note if you see the app splash screen again.

(Android). It took me several attempts to sign in. I only enabled the app to use location when app is in use. So I kept getting the notification to change that. But that wasn't my problem with my app. Whenever the app opened it tried to raise an alarm I then had to cancel. I uninstalled the app now as I was way too scared I wouldn't be realise it in time at some point and it will go through.

Thanks so much for the feedback. We're releasing a new version in the next day or so that has better compatibility for Android 10, including fixing permissions prompts and adding some more space at the bottom of the app so that "swiping" is less likely to start raising an alert. Keep an eye out for version 3.111, and let us know what you think!
