Rave Guardian

Turn your phone into a personal safety device with Rave Guardian.

The Department of Public Safety has partnered with Rave Guardian to bring to the pilipiliÎÛÂþ campus a smartphone app that turns your phone into a personal safety device. All students, faculty and staff and encouraged to download the FREE Rave Guardian safety app to check in with family, friends, campus safety, or others you trust to help you stay safe both on and off campus.

With this app you can:

  • Set a Safety Timer – Notify people you trust to check in on you if you are alone or in an unfamiliar place.
  • Manage & Message Your Guardians – Invite family, friends, or others to be your Guardian, and communicate with them within the app as needed.
  • Easy Emergency Communication – Call safety officials directly for help if you are in trouble and send text tips – including photos – if you see something suspicious.

Set up a Safety Timer

With the Safety Timer, your status & location are available to those you trust. Set it up when you are heading somewhere unfamiliar, meeting with someone you don’t know, or any other time you would like someone to check in with you.

Your Guardians will be notified if your timer expires. Remember to deactivate it when you are safe.

Connect with your Guardians

Your Guardians look out for you – and you look out for them. Add and message Guardians just like you do with your Contacts. You can easily communicate directly or via group messaging with those you trust – including the ability to send photos.

If one of your Guardians' Safety Timer has run out, you will be notified by the app, and you will be able to easily check in with that person to see if they are OK. You will also be able to see the location of their phone on a map.Emergency and Tip Communication
