Never travel alone, even from a distance

Add your trusted contacts and share your journey in real time. They know where you are, follow your progress, can chat with you in the app and are notified as soon as you arrive.

2

A safe place when you need one

If you feel followed, harassed or unsafe, quickly find a Safe Place nearby. You’ll be welcomed by a trained team, ready to listen and help. You don’t have to deal with it alone.

One report, real support.

Whether you’re a victim or a witness, you can report a situation straight from the app. Our team takes over via chat to support you, advise you and point you in the right direction.

Anonymised reports feed a collaborative map that helps prevent violence and shape action on the ground.

What people say about UMAY

★★★★★

“I was in the park with my girlfriend when some guys came over, insulted us and started following us. My girlfriend immediately sent a UMAY alert to friends, who came and picked us up in their car.”

“I’ve just stayed in one of your Safe Place hotels in Lisbon through the UMAY app. The hotel felt really safe and the staff were so attentive. I travel a lot for work: an app like this really needed to exist. Thank you.”
