Stay safer everywhere, including on campus, at ski resorts and on the road. With two-tap access to the closest emergency services and everyday features that keep you connected on the move, Patronus empowers you to go wherever you want to go.

Go It Alone: Patronus enables you to live your life on your terms. Keep a lifeline to emergency services on early morning runs or late night city streets. Share your location with a friend or partner as backup on your solitary adventures. You don't need to walk alone while walking at night.

Location Smart Up to 90% of 911 calls from mobile phones are missing location data. Patronus ensures that you get to the right help by routing you correctly and, in our network, providing the dispatcher with your exact location. Plus, turn your Android into a virtual landline at up to 20 addresses of your choice.

Get to the closest help Unlike dialing 911, Patronus routes you directly to Public Safety on any of the hundreds of campuses in our network, providing dispatchers your location within 60 feet.

Patronus is popular with:

Young women on campus or in the city
Runners
Cyclists
Pregnant and new parents
Parents and babysitters
Real estate agents
Commuters and travelers
Blind community
People with health issues, including seizures, severe allergies and heart conditions

FEATURES

On My Way: Whether you’re on your way to meet someone, letting a friend know you got home safely, or just want company while walking alone at night, share your location with friends and family while traveling from place to place.

Choose contacts to follow your trip, and Patronus will text a map of your location. Once you reach your destination, your followers will receive a text notification of your safe arrival, and location sharing will turn off.

I’m Here: A quicker way to share on the go. Send a quick snapshot of your location to a friend, partner or parent to let them know you’re safe and sound.

Request Help: Faster and more accurate than dialing 911. Patronus uses refined GPS to automatically route your call to the nearest emergency services, whether that be Campus Security, Ski Patrol or local law enforcement.

From a campus or city in the Patronus network, the dispatcher gets your position without you having to speak. Out of network, your address appears over the dialer, so you don’t have to think or look around when the dispatcher asks you for your location.

Upon calling for help, you can choose to simultaneously alert your emergency contacts with an SMS containing a link to a map of your location.

The Request Help button also acts as a "dead man switch." Hold down the button when feeling unsafe; to call for help, simply let go.

Patronus Places: Every landline is registered in a database so that 911 instantly knows where you're calling from. With the new Patronus Places, you can cut the cord and save on your monthly bill.

From home to work, register up to 20 addresses in the 911 database, down to the apartment or suite number. And because you can change your Places anytime, it's perfect for vacations and family visits. Landline reliability, mobile convenience.

Lock Screen Widget: Emergency help is only two taps away when you install Patronus on your lockscreen.

If you like Patronus and want to tell your friends, help make sure they can find us by spelling out our name. Often misspelled as petronis, patronis, petronus, or petronas, the name is P-a-t-r-o-n-u-s.

Currently supported across the continental US, slated to arrive in Hawaii and Alaska by 2016.
