Safety modes

Protection for every situation — without surveillance.

Mini Guard does not try to track everything a child does. It focuses on the moments that matter — school drop-off, beach holidays, mountain hikes — with safety modes that adapt to the day.

Parent and child at home — Mini Guard privacy-first family setting
End-to-end encrypted. GDPR-aligned. No ads, ever.

Safety modes built for real days

School Mode

Silent on the wrist, alerts active for parents. Calls limited to home and primary guardian.

Beach Mode

Tight safe zone around the towel; faster GPS updates when the child is near water.

Mountain Mode

Route tracking, meeting-point alerts and altimeter for family hikes.

Playground Mode

Short-range safe zone; reassurance pings without notification fatigue.

Trip Mode

Share live location with selected guardians during travel, then auto-stop on arrival.

Home Mode

Calm 'arrived safely' notification when the child enters the home zone.

Privacy architecture

Location is a sensitive signal. Mini Guard treats it that way. Data is encrypted in transit and at rest, only approved guardians can decrypt it, and we retain the minimum required for the service.

What happens when SOS is pressed

The SOS button is pressed by holding it for 2 seconds. This avoids accidental triggers but stays simple enough for a small child to remember.

  1. 1Wristband vibrates to confirm the alert was sent
  2. 2All approved guardians receive a priority push with live location
  3. 3If no guardian responds in 60 seconds, the wristband starts ringing them in order
  4. 4If no answer at all, an optional emergency-services hand-off can be enabled
  5. 5A live audio channel can open from the wristband if the parent accepts the call
  6. 6The alert is logged in the family timeline for later review
