The number of crimes against women have increased and this has instilled a sense of fear among many. Despite the active police action and laws against criminals, there is no reverse in the crime cases, as is clear from the fact that 2021 has seen a 31 percent rise in the complaints registered in comparison to 2020, according to National Commission for Women (NCW) data. As a citizen, what we can do to be safe is take precautions for any emergency situation. For that, we have listed top 5 safety apps for women, which can raise an alarm and be dependable companions in a difficult situation for both an iPhone and Android smartphones.

bSafe

bSafe is a comprehensive safety app for women that includes a wide range of features, from a bSafe alarm, which broadcasts the exact location as well as audio-video of the surrounding to a contact you've chosen earlier. Another one, the 'Follow me' feature allows you to virtually track the user using GPS until you arrive at the location. Not just this, but this app has a fake call feature too! Which can help you to escape an emergency situation while pretending that you are on a call with someone. And it does help! Besides these, the 'timer alarm' feature allows you to set an auto alarm to keep your guardian updated on your whereabouts.
