AngelSense Assistive
Technology

AngelSense is a GPS device & speakerphone that meets the challenging safety requirements of individuals with special needs and dementia. It is easily and discreetly worn by your loved one and uses advanced GPS technology to provide the most accurate and reliable location tracking available.

Unique to AngelSense, our Safeguard GPS, works all day, nonstop, even when the app is closed. This allows you to see every place visited and every transit taken with exact times, maps, and other useful information. There is also a complete history so you can go back and review any day in the past.

You, and anyone you want to give access to, can open our easy-to-use app from a phone, tablet, or any computer or laptop to see your loved one’s location on a live map, no matter how far away you are from them. Permissions are customizable, allowing you to give access to others for certain features, during certain times, or temporarily in an emergency.

Intelligent iAlerts are then sent to your phone or inbox that notify you when your loved one enters and leaves a place, is on the move, ends up somewhere unknown, or is somewhere unusual based on their typical schedule.

AngelSense has an array of unique features that help keep your loved one safe, support independence, and monitors well-being.

Customer Care Team staffed with parents of children with special needs, who are expert users of the product. We understand!

AngelSense can be used by anyone who wants to keep a loved one safe. Our wearing options are suitable for special needs children, teens, and adults (including those with sensory sensitivity), typical children of all ages, and the elderly or anyone with dementia.

AngelSense was specifically designed for those with Autism Spectrum Disorder and other special needs children – young and grown – who have issues with things like wandering/eloping, communicating (non-verbal), lack of safety awareness, hiding, and other symptoms that pose safety concerns. However, our device can be used to protect anyone needing extra safety measures. As mentioned, many Dementia or Alzheimer’s patients are being protected with AngelSense.

Parents and guardians can Keep Any Child Safe, also those without special needs, with Unique Safety Features like Live Tracking, 2-Way Voice, ETA, Transit Speed, and more.

Children and adults of any age can use AngelSense, but for children under 4 who may be too little to wear the device, we recommend attaching it to a backpack, diaper bag, or car seat. We also have a special belt and undershirt that some parents use for younger children.

AngelSense is totally different from alternative GPS trackers.

AngelSense is the only tracker designed specifically for individuals with special needs, providing maximum safety for real-life emergencies. In addition to Real-Time, Continuous Location Tracking, its unique capabilities include:

• Live Location Sharing: The real-time tracking map can be shared with Search & Rescue teams
• Audible Alarm: Adjustable alarm can be remotely activated to help locate child hiding or in a crowd
• Movement Inside Safe Zones: Tracking within places like school to see transitions between therapy, playground & more
• Step Counting: Detect changes in your loved one’s activity level at each specific place and during transits
• SOS / Call Request Button: Designed for special needs so they can easily notify you when they need help
• Customer Care By Autism Parents: Our support team truly understands and uses AngelSense with their own children

The AngelSense GPS4 device is attached in a non-removable way, using specially designed sensory-friendly wearing accessories, and is worn daily by thousands of special needs individuals with sensory sensitivities.

There are several different ways to attach and wear AngelSense. The protective sleeve that comes with your device can be attached to jackets, clothing, pockets, backpacks, etc., using the included non-removable magnetic fasteners. Here’s a quick guide on Wearing AngelSense.

We also have some high-quality, optional Wearables that are specially designed for sensory sensitivity. These include a Cut-to-Fit Belt, an Undershirt, an Armband and Waterproof Options that can easily be worn by children, teens, and adults.

Yes, AngelSense is allowed in schools and complies with all privacy regulations. In the rare case that your child’s school has an objection, our AngelSense School Liaisons are here to help you. Most schools welcome AngelSense and encourage Using it at School as it gives parents and schools a way to keep children who are prone to eloping safe, teaches independence, and facilitates communication between schools and parents.

We have a Complete Guide for Schools that helps introduce school staff to the many benefits of AngelSense. In regard to school policies that ban communication devices, we fully comply by providing parents and school staff the ability to completely disable the communication features during school hours. School staff can also access a School Dashboard that gives school guardians the option to update school days and hours when communication features will be disabled, get arrival,  departure, and voice activation notifications, and optional access to your child’s timeline during school hours. Learn more about Disabling Voice Features at School.

AngelSense has several School Safety Benefits to give parents peace of mind during the school year (even if voice features are disabled at school). Starting from the time they get on the school bus, you can see that they are in transit, track their route, and see the speed of the school bus. You then get an alert when they arrive safely at school – or if they haven’t arrived on time – and throughout the day you will be alerted immediately if your child leaves the school boundaries. If permitted, you can use 2-Way Voice to communicate with them and if able, they can press the Call Request SOS button to let you know that they need to speak with you. At the end of the school day, you’ll get an alert when they leave school – or if they don’t leave school on time (ensuring they never get left behind). You can then track the bus and see their ETA. If the bus misses your stop, gets delayed, or goes off course – you will get notified and be able to intervene. Several of our parents have been able to use the 2-Way Voice feature on the bus to prevent bullying, calm a child during a meltdown, and even provide instructions to a new bus driver.

If you have any questions or concerns, our Customer Support team has information and school liaisons to help. Usually, objections are resolved once it is pointed out that mobile phones pose a far greater privacy risk than AngelSense – our device cannot record, does not have video capabilities, the number of minutes included in the service plan is 60 minutes per month, and voice capabilities can be disabled.
