About the GET ME HOME SAFELY app

The GET ME HOME SAFELY app, when set up properly by the user, will connect them to trusted friends and family to ensure they get home safely when they've had too much to drink.​



​​HOW IT WORKS

In the "Contacts" menu, you will input your TOP 3 trusted friends or family members who will respond to your request for a safe way home. When the app is activated, the words "GET ME HOME SAFELY" are replaced with "I'm Responsible!" and your GPS is activated to pinpoint your exact location. This location, along with a predetermined request for assistance, is then sent to your #1 Contact. If this contact accepts your request, you are notified of their location for the estimated time of arrival. If your #1 Contact declines your request or takes too long to respond, the information is passed along to your #2 Contact and then to your #3, until either someone responds or all of your Contacts are exhausted. Should no one respond to your call for assistance, the app will automatically put you in touch with your preferred taxi service to take you home.

​PARTNERING WITH M.A.D.D. (MOTHER'S AGAINST DRUNK DRIVING)
We are partnering with M.A.D.D. to help promote awareness of the consequences of driving while impaired. Every time the GET ME HOME SAFELY app is used to arrange a safe passage home, we hope that you will use the SAY "THANKS!" button to make a small contribution to help us continue to help those who choose to be responsible.
