I downloaded this app a week ago for my sons camp. as I need to fill out the daily questionnaire regarding his health it would really have been smart if the developer would’ve enabled me to use in a drop-down menu or as a default if you’ve only got one name registered to automatically populate that name and email address every time or at least give me a drop-down menu if there were multiple children involved as this potential he could’ve had. Instead I have to sit there and type in his full name and email every time when it could’ve been seconds in and out! How lazy can you be guys!!?!? It’s such an obvious omission that this is why I’m calling you lazy!!!!

This is a great app and I would recommend that everyone at ASU (or any college) use it, especially students who walk home late at night. This app is free and offers students an easy & discreet way to report sketchy situations -- all you have to do is send a description with the option to add an additional image, video, voice recording etc. One thing I would change, however, is the response time. It doesn’t really specify how long it will take your report to be processed. I wish they gave an indication of how long it might take for your file to be reviewed.Another great thing about this app is that it is really easy to use. You navigate by clicking on either the menu bar at the bottom (which includes a home icon, “walking home” icon, or announcements icon) or the hamburger icon in the left-hand corner to see additional info. When the app opens up it takes you directly to the homepage where there are 4 main options. All you have to do is push the right button to make a report, call if there are an emergency, view resources, or go to the “goSafe” options. I do think that it is kind of repetitive to have the “goSafe” options on both the homepage and the “walking home” icon. I really like the walk home feature because you can make sure your friends get home OK and visa versa. Once they reach their destination the location sharing automatically turns off. Lastly, the shield icon for the app is super fitting, nicely done LiveSafe!!

I downloaded LiveSafe because I was encouraged by my employer. I have a few notes for potential users:(1) LiveSafe states that location-tracking (which absolutely burns through battery and data) is not required. However, in the account/app setup process, the step that requests user consent for location tracking does not allow users to proceed without clicking to “allow location sharing.” Fortunately, Apple (not the app itself) immediately has a pop up which asks to confirm that decision, so you can immediately turn it off. Still, that’s pretty scummy way of getting users to opt in.(2) The terms of service says that LiveSafe will not sell personal information, but they also note that they cannot guaranteed that your personal information will not be sold in the future (in the event of sale of the company, most likely).(3) Navigating documents is not intuitive. Opening documents with what should be a simple click requires holding the link for several seconds. Honestly, I thought the links were broken.(4) Many of LiveSafe’s functions for businesses can be handled through an HR website and email. Those that may not be as simple—The idea of sending photo notifications to company security about safety issues—is also amusing given most private organizations’ policies in photographing inside the building.(5) I question the need for a middle man between me and law enforcement in case of emergency.Overall, the most important functions of this app could be replicated with an HR website, text notifications (how old school), and emails. But what if we replaced simple things with a third-party app!I’ll probably be deleting the app.

App is completely nonfunctional. School suggested we get this app. Downloaded it, confirmed email- and got to a password screen. I had never set a password, so did the password reset. Closed the app. Reopened- put in the verified email and reset password... after minutes of processing got an “oops” message after which all other attempts were greeted with an error message that I had put in the wrong credentials. I reset my password again. Exact same process. I was unable to get past the initial mandatory login to even see what the app does. I have the most recent software update on my phone and no other apps are malfunctioning.
