Community safety, in real time

Know what’s happening around you, as it happens.

Clue is a real-time community safety app. See alerts from people nearby, share what you know in seconds, and reach your whole city with SOS when something is wrong.

How it works

Built for the moments that don’t wait.

Clue keeps the path short. Notice something, share it, get help if you need it — and let the people who care about you know where you are.

    See what's happening nearby

    Open Clue to clues posted around you — incidents, warnings and local updates, on a feed or on the map.

Features

One app for staying aware and staying reachable.

Clue brings local awareness, urgent help and personal safety tools together, so you aren't switching apps when it counts.

Awareness

A live picture of your area.

Clues are short, location-tagged updates from people nearby. Catch what's happening on your street before it reaches you.

  • Nearby clues

    Incidents, warnings and local updates posted close to where you are, on a feed or on the map.

  • Text and voice notes

    Type it, or just say it. Voice notes are there for when typing would take too long.

  • Stories

    Short-lived community updates that stay local — seen within 5 km and gone after 24 hours.

Urgent help

When it's serious, reach your whole city.

SOS is built for real emergencies. One action sends an alert that reaches people across your city, so help and attention arrive sooner.

  • SOS alerts

    A dedicated, high-priority alert that goes out citywide, kept separate from everyday posts.

  • Urgent updates travel further

    Urgent stories reach up to 10 km, twice the distance of a regular update.

Clue complements emergency services — it doesn't replace them. In immediate danger, contact local authorities first.

SOS

Personal safety

Let the right people know you’re okay.

For late trips, new routes and long days. Shared only with the trusted contacts you choose — accepted family and friends.

Live Follow

Share your live location with a link that expires on its own — anywhere from a minute to 24 hours. Stop sharing whenever you like.

Safety Check-In

Set a time to check in. If you haven't marked yourself safe by then, your trusted contacts are alerted.

Safety Zones

Save places like home or work with a 100–500 m radius, and let trusted contacts know when you arrive.

Privacy & safety

Your location, on your terms.

Safety tools only work if people trust them. Clue is built so you decide what you share, who sees it, and for how long.

Sharing has an end

Live location links expire automatically, and you can revoke them at any time.

Trusted contacts only

Check-ins and Safety Zones only notify family and friends you've accepted — nobody else.

Local by design

Stories are seen within a set radius of where they were posted, not across the whole platform.

Reported and reviewed

Anyone can report a post or story, and reports are reviewed by the Clue team.

Clue is a community tool, not an emergency service. If you or someone else is in immediate danger, contact local emergency services first.
