Could you build this?

Partial Live location sharing and SOS alerts are standard mobile features, but the safer-route scoring from crime data and the reliability of safety alerts need more than vibe-coded logic.

What it would actually take: The app needs a routing engine (OpenStreetMap-based, such as OSRM or GraphHopper) with crime-weighted edge costs built from UK police open data. It also needs push and SMS alerting that works reliably in the background on iOS and Android. A real safety product needs careful validation of the scoring methodology and UK-specific compliance and safety review.
