����������ý�Ļ���Ʒ has launched a new mobile safety app, ����������ý�Ļ���Ʒ Safe. The app is designed to centralize emergency alerts, safety tools and campus resources—making it easier for students, faculty and staff to find everything they need in one place. ����������ý�Ļ���Ʒ Safe is free for campus affiliates and available on both iOS and Android devices.

Once downloaded, campus community members can log in with their ����������ý�Ļ���Ʒ credentials to receive emergency alerts, connect with dispatch for support, and access important safety resources. The app brings together tools that were previously spread across multiple websites and platforms, including links to Buff Bus, CUNightRide, parking and campus maps, mental health services and campus reporting options.

“Safety is a shared responsibility, and this app gives every member of our community the tools they need to stay informed, connected and supported—whether in an emergency or just going about their day,” said Marlon Lynch, vice chancellor for public safety.

One of the key new features is a built-in text function to communicate with dispatch in non-emergency situations. Another new feature is Virtual Walkhome, which enables you to allow ����������ý�Ļ���Ʒ Police dispatchers to monitor your location as you walk across campus. It’s designed to give you peace of mind if you’re walking alone—especially at night. The Friend Walk option, which the campus previously offered through the Guardian app, lets you share your location with a trusted friend or family member who can track your route until you arrive safely.

“The ����������ý�Ļ���Ʒ Safe app is one more tool that our students, faculty and staff now have access to that provides added safety and security to our campus,” said Chancellor Justin Schwartz. “Offering such a resource through the Division of Public Safety is critical to the university’s priority of building a more safe and resilient campus community.”

The app also includes quick access to��CUPD, alerts social feeds ( ���Ի���), and community safety partners like��and the��.

����������ý�Ļ���Ʒ Safe will eventually replace the Guardian safety app, which will be phased out later this year. Help us get the word out—encourage your colleagues and students to download the ����������ý�Ļ���Ʒ Safe app and start using it today.
