GEO Timer empowers users to set a destination, enter an anticipated time to arrive, and activate the timer.
Standard Timer operates similarly to GEO Timer, but doesn’t require a destination.

Safe Zone empowers users to create customizable geo-zones around static locations, and automatically notify and provide their location to friends if they leave the safe area unexpectedly.
Guardian Angel empowers users to select a friend or campus security officer to track their location and watch over them during a walk home, an Uber/Lyft ride to their dorm, or any time they’re concerned about safety or in an unfamiliar area.
Watch An Ally empowers users to share their location with other Allys.
