Description
ChrisGuard is an iPhone safety timer for solo runs, hikes, dates and journeys home. Set a return time, wait for server confirmation, then check in or extend the timer. A missed check-in can trigger an SMS to your primary contact, with an optional note and location. Delivery depends on SMS credit, service and mobile networks. Contacts need no app. Requires iOS 26+ and a paid subscription from €4.99/month.

Could you build this?
