Everything your community needs
One app. Every safety feature your family and neighbourhood deserves.
Real-Time Safety Map
See live incidents, alerts, and danger zones on an interactive map. Know what's happening within 15 km of your location before you step out.
Instant Push Alerts
Get notified the moment an incident is reported near you. Choose alerts by type: crime, accident, flood, protest, or general safety.
Incident Reporting
Report what you see in seconds. Add photos, location, and details. Anonymous reporting available — your safety comes first.
Missing Persons Registry
Post and search missing person alerts instantly. Community members can confirm sightings in real time, increasing chances of reunion.
SOS Emergency Button
One tap triggers an emergency alert shared with your trusted contacts and the SafeRoute Africa community. Never face danger alone.
Community Validation
Reports are validated by the community. Multiple confirmations boost credibility. Trust scores reward reliable reporters.

Safety is stronger when we look out for each other
SafeRoute Africa is built on the belief that communities are their own best defence. Every report you make, every alert you share, every confirmation you give — it all adds up to a safer neighbourhood for your family.
Your privacy is our product
We built SafeRoute Africa with the assumption that safety tools must be trustworthy tools.
End-to-end encryption
Your personal data is encrypted at rest and in transit. We use Firebase and industry-standard security.
Approximate location only
We never store your exact GPS coordinates. Incident locations are rounded to protect reporter identity.
Anonymous by default
Choose to report anonymously on every single submission. Your name never appears unless you opt in.
No data sales. Ever.
Your safety data is never sold to advertisers, insurers, or any third party. Period.
