Emma is only alerted if you miss your check-in.
Most safety tools either track you constantly or rely on someone remembering to check in. But if your phone dies, you lose signal, or plans run late, it can be unclear whether anyone should act. ABB gives your trusted contact a simple signal: if you miss your return time, they get the details they need to help.

ABB does not stream your location or monitor your movements. You choose what adventure details to share.
Once your beacon is started, ABB's server-side timer keeps running even if your battery dies or signal drops.
Your contact is not notified when you start. They only hear from ABB if you miss your check-in window.
Whether you're hiking alone, camping with friends, trail running, van-lifing, or road-tripping, ABB gives your trusted contact a simple check-in plan without live tracking.
For mountain trails, remote walks, and day hikes where someone should know when you expect to be back.
For long drives, overnight stops, remote campsites, and travel days where timing matters.
For fast outings where live tracking feels like too much, but a check-in plan still matters.
For overnight stays where plans can change, batteries can die, and someone should know your return window.
For couples, friends, or small groups who want someone outside the trip to have the plan.
For any outing where you want a trusted person to know when to check on you.
ABB watches the clock so you can enjoy the view.
