Walk Safely FREE

Limited time FREE offer of Walk Safely application!

An innovative app that helps the user to be alert and safe during walking in urban environment. Ideal for children who walk in urban environment. Also very suitable for pedestrians who care about their own traffic safety.

Have you ever seen people staring at their smartphones while crossing a road? Trusting that everybody else notice and dodge them. It is important to teach children that you don’t use your smartphone while you are walking among traffic. But, do children really obey all the advice when parents are not watching?

Walk Safely prevents the user from walking and using smartphone’s screen at the same time. The app detects if the user is walking or running and shows a warning screen that blocks the normal view. The phone’s other functions or ongoing calls are not disturbed. Warning screen can be removed by pressing the hide sign or by stopping walking. The warning screen returns if the user continues walking.

Keep your heads up, folks!
