12 Personal Safety Apps Every Woman Should Download
Best for Internet dates: Kitestring
Kitestring is simple but effective. Whether you need an innocent “interruption text” on a first date that may or may not go well, or you need actual assistance, it can help. Notify the app when you’re going into a sketchy situation. It will send you periodic texts, checking up on you. If you fail to respond to one, it will send your location and an alert to your emergency contacts. It could save your life, or give you a chance to say, “Oh shoot. It’s my friend. It’s an emergency, I have to go” and get out of a bad date.
