Problem
Individuals, students, and families often lack a quick, reliable way to request help and share their exact location during emergencies, leaving them vulnerable when they are alone or traveling. Existing safety apps can be costly, limited in coverage, or require complex setup, which reduces timely assistance.
Solution
NauNauSOS is a mobile application that enables users to trigger an emergency SOS alert with a single tap, instantly notifying up to five pre‑selected trusted contacts and transmitting the user’s GPS coordinates. The “Follow‑Me” feature streams real‑time location updates to those contacts for the duration of a journey, providing continuous visibility until the user reaches safety. Push notifications keep contacts automatically informed of status changes, while the message‑download function records and shares incident details for later review. The app runs on iOS and Android, supports global coverage, and offers an affordable subscription model that includes additional premium features such as extended location history and priority support. An optional safety‑education series (“Ginger’s Plan”) and accessibility options for hearing‑impaired users broaden its utility across diverse user groups.
Target Audience
The primary users are college and university students, parents monitoring their children’s safety, and individual adults who need personal security during daily activities or travel. Educational institutions, corporate wellness programs, and community organizations also constitute a secondary market.
