How It Works
Inside the App
A closer look at how BRO creates a safety net that's always within reach.
BRO home screen — your personal support circle with one-tap signal
Your Circle, Your Safety Net
The home screen centers on your personal support circle — up to five trusted friends and family members displayed in an intuitive ring layout. A heartbeat pulse animation provides a calming visual anchor, while the status bar confirms that your circle is active and available. The prominent 'Send Signal' button at the bottom is always one tap away when you need it.
Signal sent screen — real-time response tracking from your circle
Instant Signal, Immediate Response
When you send a signal, BRO immediately notifies your circle members. The signal screen shows real-time response tracking — who has been notified, who has responded, and who is on the way. A timeline view keeps you informed as friends check in, reducing the anxiety of waiting. Professional resources are always accessible at the bottom for situations that need additional support.
Emergency Contacts — manage your SOS network with import and manual add options
Emergency SOS Contacts
The Emergency Contacts screen lets you manage your safety network with ease. Import contacts from your phone or add them manually with name and number. When an SOS is triggered, these contacts receive an automatic alert via SMS. The interface shows how many contacts are selected and ready, giving you confidence that help is always one tap away.
