5-Seconds offers an advanced social alarm system which enables you to create or participate in alarm circles. Invite people you can trust, who know you, who are always prepared to help you.

The moment the alarm button is hit, all members in your circle are notified and participate in the 5-Seconds Situation Map. The exact locations of all members are visible to each other, they can groupchat, confirm help, and listen to the sound distress recording. Everybody is involved and up to date during the alarm situation.

Key features
