I really like the idea. Seems like I'm the first walker in my city, but the concept is exactly what I wanted.

Ten layers between you and a stranger

Safety here is not one promise. It is a stack of quiet mechanics that let you meet people without giving yourself away.

Your pin is shifted on the map

A walk's pin on the map is never dropped on its exact spot. Walk With Me shifts the marker by up to two hundred meters (one hundred for a live walk), and that offset stays fixed for the whole walk, so refreshing the map or comparing notes with someone else never narrows it down. While you walk, your live precise location goes only to the people you accepted. You stay easy to find for the walkers you have agreed to meet, without broadcasting exactly where you are standing to everyone else.

The host decides who joins

Being on the map does not mean anyone can just show up. Walks are join by request by default: someone asks, and the host decides yes or no, unless the host has chosen to auto-accept. Only walkers you approve can follow your live, precise location once the walk starts, and you can remove someone mid-walk if you need to. It puts a human gate between a stranger and your walk, which is the difference between an open invitation and a walk you actually control.

A check-in so your pin never lingers

Longer walks come with a check-in. When a walk you are hosting runs past its planned time, the app asks whether you are still walking: say yes and your approximate location keeps sharing for another hour, or finish the walk and it comes off the map. A grace window means a good detour or a slow coffee does not cut anything off early. It keeps your whereabouts from hanging around on the map after you have gone home, which is safety as a quiet background habit, not a panic button you hope never to press.

Spaces that fit who you are

Sometimes the safest walk is one scoped to your own people. When you create a walk you can make it Women Only, Men Only, or LGBTQ plus only, and the app checks each joiner's profile gender, which can only be set once, before they can see or join it. For a lot of walkers a gender or community specific space is the thing that gets them out the door at all. Alongside one tap blocking and a twenty four hour review on reports, it is one layer among many rather than a single promise.

What is a Safe Walking App?

A walking app with built-in safety features that protect users' location, identity, and physical safety during group walks, including location offsets, host approval, instant blocking, and 24-hour report review.

Walk With Me was built from day one with your safety as the foundation. 10 layers of protection keep you safe before, during, and after every walk.

A walk's pin on the map is shifted by up to 200 meters (100 for a live walk), and the shift is fixed per walk so nobody can average it out. Your live precise location goes only to walkers you accepted.

Create Women Only, Men Only, or LGBTQ+ Only walks. These safe spaces let you walk with people who share similar experiences, free from vulnerability.

Join requests go to the walk host for approval by default. Decline anyone without explanation. Remove participants mid-walk if needed. You are always in control.

One tap to block any user completely. They disappear from your experience and see 'User not found.' Reports are reviewed by our admin team within 24 hours.

Set your walks to friends-only or private. Only people you trust can discover and join. Strangers never see your walks exist.

Encrypted connections, hashed passwords, sign-in sessions that expire, private progress photos encrypted per user, and full account and data deletion right in the app.

The safest way to meet people walking is structured: hosts approve join requests by default and walk pins on the map are shifted, so a stranger becomes a walking buddy through the same safe walking layers regular groups use.

Frequently Asked Questions
