05 · Guardian Walk

Walk me home. We watch the whole way.

Sharing your live dot on a walk is free, always. And so is the watched walk: set an ETA, make your check-in and it stands down quietly, miss it or go silent and the people you trust get your last known location. Steady walks beside you in stages when you feel followed. No card, no catch.

Guardian Walk lives in the Vigil Guard iOS app, free on the App Store now. The app shows your live dot, a neighbourhood radar, and the watched-walk timer.

A watched walk · free

From your door to theirs.

The watched walk is free, no card. You set where you are going and when you should arrive. The app holds the watch. You do not have to hold the phone, type, or call. If your walk goes quiet, the alert moves for you.

Steady · free

When you feel followed,
something walks beside you.

Steady is a calm companion for the walk that does not feel right. It escalates in stages, on your pace, and at any point it can fire the panic alert. Your circle gets your live location, your street the approximate area.

Stage 1 · Walk with me

Walk with me

You start Steady quietly. It holds your live location and keeps a calm, steady presence on screen while you keep moving.

Stage 2 · Stay close

Stay close

If it gets worse, Steady tightens in. It readies your contacts so one tap reaches them, and surfaces the call-000 button.

Stage 3 · Get ready

Get ready

At the top stage, Steady is one motion from the panic alert. Fire it and your four contacts get your live location, your street the approximate area, at once.

Steady never dials 000 for you. If it is life-threatening, you call 000 yourself with the one-tap button. The strength of the street alert comes from your verified neighbours on Lookout: real residents who vouch for each other build a network that is hard to spoof and quick to respond.

All of it, free

What you get, stated plainly.

Sharing your live dot, the watched walk that escalates on its own, and Steady, all free, no card. We only ever charge for a physical patrol car on your street.

The basics · $0

A live view you can share, no card needed.

  • Your live location dot, in the app
  • Share your dot with a contact for a walk
  • One-tap call-000 button in any emergency

The watched walk · $0

The watch that moves on its own. Free, no card.

  • Set an ETA · the app watches the whole walk
  • Miss your check-in or go silent · contacts auto-alerted with your last location
  • Steady staged companion · can fire the panic alert
  • Your street network alerted with the approximate area

In a life-threatening emergency, call 000 yourself. The app gives you a one-tap button for it on every screen. Vigil Guard never dials 000 for you.

Part of one system

The same alert, more ways in.

The panic switch

Hold the switch three seconds and the same alert fires: four contacts on parallel lines with live GPS, SMS fallback, and your street with the approximate area. The watched walk fires this for you when you go silent.

A street you can trust

Your street alert is only as good as the people on it. On Lookout, neighbours vouch for real residents and build a verified constellation. More verified neighbours means a network that is harder to spoof and quicker to respond.
