Abstract In recent years, women’s safety has become a major concern globally. With the widespread availability of smartphones and internet connectivity, mobile applications have emerged as a powerful tool to enhance personal security. This research focuses on the design and development of a mobile application dedicated to women’s safety. The app includes features such as real-time location tracking, emergency alerts, fake call system, and one-touch SOS functionality. The study evaluates the effectiveness of such apps and proposes future enhancements based on user feedback and technological trends.
This paper introduces a mobile application specifically designed to promote women’s safety in emergency situations. The application is simple to use and can be activated with a single click when the user perceives a threat or feels unsafe. Upon activation, the app immediately begins transmitting the user’s real-time location to a set of pre-registered emergency contacts through SMS. These messages are sent at regular intervals, ensuring continuous tracking of the user’s movements.
One of the unique features of this application is its persistence: the system keeps sending location updates until the user manually cancels the alert by pressing a ‘SAFE’ or ‘STOP’ button. This ensures that the contacts remain informed of the user’s location throughout the emergency, potentially enabling quicker response times by authorities or loved ones.
The application thus acts as a virtual guardian, silently accompanying the user during moments of potential danger. By leveraging modern mobile and GPS technology, it addresses pressing concerns about women’s safety in public and private spaces. The ultimate goal of the system is not only to provide real-time assistance but also to serve as a deterrent to potential threats, empowering women with a sense of control and security in uncertain situations. Beyond the technical capabilities, this application also serves a broader social purpose. It symbolizes the growing role of technology in public safety and demonstrates how smart systems can be tailored to address gender-specific vulnerabilities.
The study not only details the development and functionality of the application but also explores the psychological and social impacts of such technologies. By providing women with an accessible and effective safety tool, it promotes confidence, mobility, and independence in their daily lives. The paper concludes with a discussion on future enhancements, potential for integration with law enforcement agencies, and the importance of spreading awareness about digital self-defence tools Through this paper, we aim to analyse the effectiveness, usability, and societal impact of this application while also highlighting the broader importance of integrating technology into public safety initiatives.
