Ethan Zuckerman is a professor at the University of Massachusetts Amherst and a scholar of digital media.

6 Tested Safety Apps for Personal Protection (2024)

Wired

Summary

Nutrition label

67% Informative

Your iPhone comes equipped with a few safety features that work right out of the box.

With iOS 17 , Apple introduced a Check In tool that lets you check in with someone you trust.

Androids can vary based on the model, but if you have a relatively recent phone, it likely includes an emergency call system.

Like most of these wearables, your phone will have to be with you for this to work.

Many of these apps empower users to signal for help discreetly, eliminating the need to speak or make a call.

These apps can help you reach assistance more quickly, but they haven't been specifically tested for such scenarios.
