About iWatch

Protect. Connect. Inform. Three words that decide what gets built — and what doesn't.

Why iWatch exists

Most people have had at least one moment where they wished there was a record of what just happened. A conversation that turned. A stop on an empty road. A walk home that felt wrong.

In that moment, the tools most people have are the ones they can't operate: a camera app several taps away, a phone that needs unlocking, a recording that lives only on a device that could be taken, broken or lost.

iWatch exists to close that gap. Start fast, capture cleanly, get the file somewhere safe, and be able to find it again. That's the whole product.

Our principles

Three words, three commitments

Protect

Give people tools to quickly document situations when they feel unsafe, without needing to think about how the app works.

Connect

Give people quick access to emergency resources and the safety information that matters in the moment.

Inform

Securely preserve documentation that can help establish what occurred, and be honest about its state at all times.

The rule we hold ourselves to

Never claim what the technology cannot verify

Trust and technical accuracy are the brand. If iWatch cannot verify something, iWatch will not say it — not in the app, not on this website, not in an advertisement.

  • We don't say family is watching, because they aren't.
  • We don't say police were notified, unless a call was actually placed.
  • We don't say evidence can never be deleted, because no system can promise that.
  • We don't say a recording is secured until the server confirms it.

Who iWatch is for

iWatch is being built as a scalable personal-safety platform for individuals, parents, teenagers, college students, seniors, travellers, rideshare passengers, employees, families and communities.

Where we are now

Version one focuses on doing the core workflow extremely well — activate, record, secure, retrieve — before anything else is added. Everything after that has to be secure, simple, fast and trustworthy, or it doesn't ship.

Coming soon

Be among the first to carry iWatch.

Join the launch list and we'll email you the moment the iWatch app is available on the App Store and Google Play.
