Start your activity. Send a link. Let them follow.
For example, you’re heading out for a long ride and want your partner to know where you are. Here’s what happens.
Share the private link.
Send the link to your chosen person using your usual messaging app. It is an invitation to follow this activity—not access to your account or your full activity history.
They follow your progress.
The link opens a page explaining whose activity they’re following. A map shows your latest shared position and recorded trail, with the time of the latest update. Finishing or stopping sharing ends live access.
What your person sees
A map they can understand at a glance.
Your name and activity appear above the map. Your recorded trail shows where you’ve been, and a position marker shows the most recent location received. The update time helps them judge how current it is.
If your connection drops, the page keeps the last received position and identifies delayed updates. It does not invent movement between locations.
You choose what to include
Keep it simple—or share a little more.
Location sharing is the main feature. These two additions are optional and stay off until you choose them.
Private for this activity
You start sharing. You stop sharing.
Your friends do not automatically receive your live location. You activate Safety Circle for each activity, and live access ends when you finish or stop sharing. Anyone with the private link can view it while it is active, so send it only to people you trust.
Before you head out.
Which activities can I share?
Walking, running, cycling, and open-water swimming. Safety Circle is not offered for other activity types.
Do my people need the app?
No. A private link opens the live viewing page in their browser. A RiseMove account and notification permission are needed for background check-in alerts.
What does live tracking need?
Your tracking device needs location access and a connection to send updates. Updates can be delayed in weak coverage. For swimming, do not expect reliable GPS or connectivity underwater. Standalone watch support depends on the device and connection; Wear OS is a separate testing programme.
Will it call for help if something happens?
No. Safety Circle helps trusted people follow an outing. It does not detect emergencies, guarantee updates or alerts, or contact emergency services.
When will it be available?
The iOS update is being prepared for App Store review and becomes available after approval. Android remains in closed testing. See Android testing details.
Start with the people you trust.
Record your next outdoor activity in RiseMove. When Safety Circle is available, turn it on and invite your person to follow along.
