SafetyGrid Version 1.18 is released to the App store (may take 24 hours to be visible for everyone). SafetyGrid version 1.18 includes fixes for the new Check In Feature. The Check in Feature, introduced in Version 1.17 allows you to do a simple checkin with just your contacts (vs the entire social media planet which can introduce their own safety issues). You have the option to provide a location or not and an option to just say I’m ok or type a custom message to send along with your checkin.
We’ve also made some settings screen changes to reduce confusion on the GEOS contacts there. These contacts will no longer be selectable unless you are a GEOS monitored alarm subscriber. The place for the automated alert contacts is on the contacts screen and we now guide you to this screen during the setup process more clearly. Hopefully this will help simplify your setup experience.
We will have 1 more update out before the end of the year (yes, we’ve been busy). Apple gets really busy this time of year so we can’t commit they’ll have it to you in time but we certainly will have it to them! We are also hard at work on the Android Version of SafetyGrid coming soon. (I foresee some egg nog powered coding coming up this year by yours truly) Wah Hoo!
Don’t forget, please reach out to us with any questions via our support page. Also, if you have feature requests or ideas, drop them in our forum! We’d love to hear from you! Truly we would!
