ROAD iD: Safety App is now SafeBeacon! Same trusted safety features, fresh look. Share your live location with guardians who don’t need the app — just a link. You lace up. You head out alone. Your family and loved ones shouldn’t have to wonder if you’re okay. SafeBeacon is the safety app built for runners, hikers, cyclists, walkers and seasoned travelers who train or adventure solo. Start an activity, and your designated guardians can follow your route in real time — no app download required on their end. If something goes wrong, they’ll know exactly where you are. HOW IT WORKS 1. Tap Start before your run, ride, or hike 2. Guardians receive a link via SMS or email 3. They follow your live GPS route from any browser 4. Activity ends — they get a completion notification AUTOMATIC SAFETY ALERTS SafeBeacon monitors your movement during every activity. If you stop moving unexpectedly, your guardians are alerted automatically — no button press needed. Combined with one-tap SOS and crash detection, you’re covered whether you roll an ankle on a trail or get into an accident on the road. WHY ATHLETES CHOOSE SAFEBEACON • Guardians don’t need the app — just a browser • Automatic stationary alert if you stop moving • One-tap SOS with 911 integration • Crash detection senses impact automatically • Activity-based tracking — not always-on surveillance • Trusted by 6,000+ active subscribers BUILT FOR SOLO ADVENTURERS Unlike family tracking apps that run 24/7, SafeBeacon activates only when you’re doing an activity. Your location stays private until you choose to share it. Whether you’re training for a marathon, exploring a new trail, or commuting by bike, SafeBeacon gives your loved ones peace of mind without compromising your privacy.
