React Mobile – Safety App for Android
You need to keep on pairing the device with the phone when you want to use it. I was hoping if you're in a panic you will not need to pair the device, launch the app then use the remote.
When a tech company can't even get their mobile site right, how can they get an app right???? No thank you!
App does not open on Android 6.0.1 in my Oneplus 2. Re: Still not working :-(
Installed but it opens and closes :-(
I was expecting a one button emergency solution for situations when you don't have time to ask for help and you can alert your friends and family that you need help and where are you. This app in the first 30 minutes crushed at least 4 times, didn't sent out any message, got stucked in loading... So no thank you.
I tested out with my husband and everything seemed to work fine. Although the slider button is hard to move. It took several tries every time I wanted to slide it back and forth. Perhaps that is to prevent moving it accidentally, but I would hate to be fumbling in a real emergency. I guess that's why people buy the Sidekick thing. Overall, good concept.
This app apparently doesn't work. When my girlfriend goes for a run and I receive a text message via this application, I click on the link. It doesn't open the app, just a website in the browser where there is a button to open the app. I click on the button, and it opens the app's Play Store page, not the app. Then I click on the Open button in the Play Store. It opens the app. There's nothing to see. I have no idea where my girlfriend is. There's nothing to click. The UI looks like the runner's UI.
I tested it today and I'm disappointed. My husband got the messages late and from a different phone number than my cell phone! A number I don't even know! It seems the device freezes often and I need to start it again frequwntly5. Please, fix it!
The execution of this app is not very smooth. There's slow responses to my press commands including finding that I sometimes had to drag the dang button "I'm Fine" to "Follow Me" so many times for it to start the process! Other times this works okay. Has anyone else been dealing with this similar problem?

No problem pairing the device, but the app aborts & freezes constantly. Follow me does not work at all. Only point of origin is displayed. I've sent in several reports and got no replies from the company. followers are inundated with emergency emails that I am NOT safe because I cannot toggle back from follow me to I'm fine. Worst app ever. Company has no return policy so I am out $70 for the device I purchased.
Just discovered this product line, and I love everything. I'm reading a lot of comments about technical issues on certain devices, but after looking into the company that develops it (and recent news developments that it may be adopted by Seattle University), I'm sure they will be worked out. I'm also looking into any fixes I can contribute from a coding angle.
I can't even manage to pair it! It keeps crushing! Help!
This app is very useful for travelers or to any always on the go! I like its function where in i do not have to manually send message or call people on my contacts whenever Im on the road. This app enhances our day to day safety.
This is a must have app on all of your family members phones. Keep kids and older children safe.
This app works very well-- especially the Follow Me feature. Definitely a must-have for anyone concerned about their safety.
Unreliable as a safety app, Won't stay open longer than 3 minutes without force closing EDIT: WTH?! Tried setting this app up (right before it crashed) and now Im finding out that it apparently sent text messages to my contacts without my consent or knowledge. My mom and my husband both got late night texts advertising "React Mobile." Very uncool!
LG G4 - Great app idea. However I am having serious difficulty sliding the selector. I have to attempt several times before it slides. Once it even went to "SOS" when I was attempting to slide it from "Follow Me" to " I'm Fine!"
Not locating me on galaxy s4
Great improvements to the app! Can't wait to try out my Sidekick.
Outstanding idea but needs a little work. Slide action does not work on my note 4. I almost dialed 911 twice before I gave up. Work out the bugs and this will be a great app. Just not quite there yet.
almost unusable.. actually it's not usable
Absolutely ridiculous app. Hasn't worked properly since I downloaded it. With the new update I managed to get it to activate FINALLY and then it charged my husband to follow me. Stupid. Might as well use my phone and call him it costs me nothing!!
good features and function but glitchy on slide action and adding contacts to follow me. needs faster action and open widget. not usable till fixed. Note 2 kitkat. I will be watching for bug fixes before pushing to my people.
This app works very well-- especially the Follow Me feature. Definitely a must-have for anyone concerned about their safety.
Will start using this all the time now when we take the dogs out on long walks. Great idea and easy to use! I would have given 5 stars but I only recently started using the follow me. Sam
What a great app. The follow me feature works great. Love this app.
Great idea to bad I'd be dead by the time it loaded...major fail!!
Very simple to down load and set up was a breeze. Helps bring peace of mind to parents and families alike. I know when our teen has arrived safely at the correct destination and the runners in our family can receive help at the touch of a button. I really appreciate being able to set up our own safety network of friends and family to contact in an emergency.

Definitely feel more safe since this app gives me a quick way to alert someone.
Love this app!! Had family & friends get it as well. Easy to opperate and could save your life...great for parents, and travel.
App keeps crashing and glitching
My Reach the Beach team used this to track the whereabouts of our runners on the night leg of a recent overnight relay - awesome functionality! My husband also keeps tabs on my run while I'm out running solo, very cool.
I love this App for families! the tracking and check in feature are so nice for Mom's to know where their kids are and that they have safely arrived at their destination. And the one touch SOS button makes for and easy and fast way to get help when you need it. Makes for a feeling of peace when your a worrying parent like I am! Will be installing on my children s devices!
Love how easy it is to use! Just push one button and you can send messages to your parents, significant other, friends or even emergency personnel letting them know you're in danger. I really like the Follow Me feature. It takes some of the fear out of walking home alone late at night. I had it downloaded, installed and figured out within less than ten minutes. I would highly recommend this app for anyone who worries about their personal safety.
I love this simple to use app, Ive recently started running and because of hubbys schedule its late evening running. I feel far more secure having this app and my husband can track where I am (which I like for late night running)
Just downloaded the App (jelly beans OS) and I keep getting an error message saying 'unfortunately react mobile has stopped'
With this app you get peace-of-mind, knowing where your loved ones are at all times. No more wondering. With a direct GPS locator, and a prompt to call emergency services, it creates a fail-safe. Being direct and easy to use helps!
