Tell someone before you go.
Save a trusted person, start a timed journey, attach a Google Maps location, and share the plan from your phone. Your trusted-person list stays on this device.
01
Choose a trusted person
Add someone you can contact before a journey. Their details stay on this device and are never uploaded to SafeMY.
Your trusted-person list is saved only in this browser. Clearing browser data or changing devices removes it.
02
Start a Safe Journey
Set where you are going, add a time to arrive, capture your location, and tell one trusted person.
Phase 1 is user-controlled: SafeMY does not monitor this journey, contact your trusted person, or call 999 automatically. The timer works only while this tab stays open. Your coordinates stay in this browser unless you choose to share them; Google receives them when its map or link loads.
Add your starting locationOptional, but it gives your trusted person a useful Google Maps pin.
Nothing is sent when you start. The next screen gives you WhatsApp, SMS, and your phone's share sheet.

Safety tips
Practical habits, not fear. Small things that make a real difference.
- 1Walk facing oncoming traffic where there's no pavement
You'll see a vehicle before it reaches you, and drivers see you sooner too. - 2Keep your phone held close, not out in the open
Phone snatching from passing motorcycles happens on ordinary streets, not just quiet ones. Pocket it or keep it in a bag when you're not actively using it, and avoid walking while scrolling near the roadside. - 3Check the plate and driver photo before you get in
For e-hailing, match the car's plate number and the driver's photo in the app before opening the door. Sit in the back seat when travelling alone, and let a guardian know you're on your way. - 4Have your keys out before you reach your door or car
Fumbling for keys at a gate, front door, or car door is a common moment of vulnerability — have them in hand while you're still walking. - 5Be deliberate at ATMs and cash points
Glance around before you withdraw, shield the keypad as you type, and step away from the machine before counting your cash. - 6Approach your parked car with intent
Look around and check the back seat before getting in. Where you have a choice, park somewhere lit rather than somewhere dark and empty. - 7If you think you're being followed, change your route, not your pace
Head toward a shop, petrol station, or anywhere with people, rather than straight home. Call someone so you're not alone on the line. Trust that feeling over politeness. - 8Tell a guardian your route, not just your destination
"Heading home from KLCC, should be back by 11" gives someone enough to notice if something's wrong — and act on it.
