I like the concept. But....I don't really understand it. I know I didn't know that when I lost it at a sold out college football game, that I would have to pay $30 to replace it (no, it isn't a lot, but for a mama of a college boy, on disability...it is) I have watched videos, read, and reread everything, but still don't really know how it works. I have it, my son is attached, I have accidentally set it off, and it has randomly gone off, when my purse (with fob clipped on side) was sitting on my dresser, across the room, and he checked in because I had activated...? I also got his girlfriend one. She's 21, works 2 full time jobs, and had a creep following her. She leaves hers in her car (which will kill the battery, and to me, defeats the whole reason of having it) because she doesn't understand it either! So....I don't know if I'm going to continue my membership. I'm still undecided. I just wish there was more info, or easily followed instructions...? I don't know. I LOVED giving it to her as a gift! I felt as though I was giving her (and my son and myself) a sense of security, and though I don't have an extra $10 a month, it is worth it to me! I had considered starting to do it as a graduation gift ($5 a month is easier for me) for their first year of college...but, if college kids can't figure out how to use them, it would be a waste. So, not giving up, just hoping to figure it out and easily be able to explain it as a gift.

I saw this product on the news and thought, I have to have this for my family. I immediately obtained one and had my wife set it up. It was awesome, it prerecords 30 seconds of audio that can be critical in helping to understand context for what just happened. It helps track where she is when she's under duress. It also provides regular updates with new audio content on a regular basis to help keep me informed on how things are transpiring. However, once the app is running in background waiting for when she presses the button - she can no longer hear audible beeps for text messages and phone calls. This simply won't work for us. I'm sure it's a limitation of our phone technology but it's a major flaw that prevents us from actually using the product.

I don't use my Wearsafe much because it doesn't have an audible alarm option (at least not that I know of). If I am out running or walking by myself, and someone attacks me, sending an alert to my responders isn't going to do me much good in the moment in terms of stopping that attack. Yes, people will know where I am, to get help to me after the attack. And yes, if I were to be kidnapped, people would be able to find me. But I also want assistance in trying to prevent the attack in the first place - having a loud, piercing alarm could deter the attacker by alerting anyone in my immediate vicinity that something bad is happening, and those people are in a better position to help me immediately, rather than my Wearsafe responders. Without this function, I don't really find this product to be very useful in my daily life.

I don't know if I accidentally messed up something with the iPhone, but when I tried to use it after awhile it wouldn't pair with the phone again. I think the battery may have died, but it has only been less than a month.

I think the concept is great and the tests have worked well so far. I gave it only 3 stars though because the tag came with no instructions. It took us FOREVER to figure everything out for pairing the tag and getting the network set up. Would have been so much better if instructions had been included.

The set up was simple and the Alerts once established, are quickly received by contacts. my one concern however is that not every contact has both smart phone and email access. Can't help but wonder, what if... A contact can only be reached by email, an Alert is sent, but contact is not at their computer to receive Alert?

The Wearsafe was fantastic at first. However, it seemed pointless to have everyone I wanted to connect be required to download the app. Now the batteries kee running down quickly, and the key ring connector snapped!

The product itself and the idea around it is great but what I don't like is that everyone needs to download the app to recieve the alerts. I understand that users with the little tracker need it but those who we are alerting shouldn't. That way I can easily just input the phone numbers of people who I wish to be alerted.
