GruupUp - Community Safety

GruupUp is available for Android and other smartphones. GruupUp uses your GPS location and Mobile Operator location based services to allow you to anonymously alert, message, announce or call for help to other online users and service providers within close geographically proximity.

The GruupUp mobile app allows you to download, install, register and login on your smartphone. Once installed, users can notify, set off alerts, or signal for help, the application is aware of privacy and security, therefore other users will not know who you are, and will only know your location if you call for help.

You and other users will always only see how many other users and which service providers are online within the geographical radius selected in your GruupUp mobile application.

In the event of triggering alert or signaling for help, all the online users and service providers within your selected geographical radius and within their selected geographical location will be notified of your alert, together with the location where your call was done.

The signal for emergency help, can be done whilst your phone is in screen locked mode (supported by most phone manufactures). This method is typically for emergencies where you may not have the luxury of time to unlock your mobile phone, open the app and send a SOS alerts.

Within the app is an alternative way to announce or alert other online users. Using this method you will have more options and the ability to include more details.

The app features the ability for online users to anonymously talk to other online users within the corresponding geographical location of each event, thus allowing users to help or plan a way of helping. All events and chats are removed after a time limitation.

GruupUp includes a history log of all active events that have been triggered and historical event within your current location and your selected geographical radius.
