Safely Track Me

Share your hiking, running, driving, cycling, flying, skiing, paddling, sailing, or walking activity with friends and family while you're solo in the outdoors. Unlike other apps that just share your current location, Safely Track Me shares your entire track, allowing friends and family to start locating you if your battery dies, or your phone is destroyed or stolen. It also includes a panic button that automatically sends an SMS from your device with a help message and your location to the contacts you've loaded.

For Aviation:
Safely Track Me includes tools for pilots, letting you create and manage your own waypoints and airfields, and navigate directly to them. Track your flights, share your route live with others on the ground, and keep a record of where you've flown.

Permissions:
The STM app will prompt you once at the start to allow background location permission, which is required to keep the app tracking and uploading GPS points while the phone screen is off or the app is in the background. You will also be prompted to allow access to the Physical Activity permission, which is used to detect changes in motion so tracking can be optimised. Tracking only occurs when initiated by the user, and ends when you stop the active track or close the app.
