Everything Vygard does

From a worker app to a companion for everything you do alone.

Vygard began as a lone-worker safety platform trusted across construction, care, forestry and utilities — real SOS, automatic fall detection, and a monitoring-centre escalation cascade. Vygard Personal puts that same engine in your pocket: for every run, ride, climb, drive, walk home and journey — and for the people you love.

The safety engine

The core that powers all of it.

Every mode and product below rides on the same six capabilities. Change the activity and the sensitivity, screen and contacts change — the safety plumbing doesn't.

One-tap SOS

Hold to raise an alarm to your people — and, on the monitored tier, a UK-based Alarm Receiving Centre — with your live location attached.

Fall & crash detection

A 50 Hz accelerometer classifier that fires automatically when you can't. Retuned per activity so a road crash, a climbing fall and a stumble each read differently.

Escalation cascade

The same BS 8484-aligned escalation as our industrial platform: chosen contact → buddy → ARC. No dead ends when seconds count.

Timed check-ins

Set an interval or an arrival deadline. Miss it and your people are notified automatically — the safety net for when you can't press a button.

Live location

Share your position for the duration of an activity or journey, with cell-tower fallback when GPS drops. It stops when you're done.

Works off-grid

Lose signal and an SOS or detected fall is stored with your last location and sent the instant coverage returns — over satellite on newer phones.

Tuned to what you're doing

Eight activities, one engine, retuned for each.

A mountain-bike jolt isn't a fall; a still swimmer is. Each activity resets the crash classifier, check-in cadence and home screen — and one Strava connection auto-publishes the right activity type.

For the people you love

Vygard Family is one dashboard for everyone you watch over — kids on the school run, a teen driver, someone walking home, an elderly parent. Live status at a glance, and you're told the instant there's a fall, a missed check-in or an SOS.

Travelling solo

Set a destination and an ETA — if you don't arrive, your people are alerted. Share your itinerary, get local emergency numbers by country, and keep check-ins working even offline. The walk home, the night shift, the trip abroad.

One Strava connection

Connect Strava once and every sport mode auto-publishes with the right activity type — Ride, Run, Hike, Ski, Sail. Your session becomes a GPX; safety-only modes like Drive and Night Walk never publish.

Fits the kit you own

No extra hardware to buy.

iPhone, Apple Watch (including Apple Watch Ultra with cellular for wrist-only SOS), Android with Wear OS — and Garmin inReach for true off-grid satellite messaging. The activity modes just add sport-specific tuning of the sensors you already carry.

Protection that goes where you do.

Same engine that protects lone workers — now for your runs, rides, journeys and the people you love. Just £4.99 a month, one flat price. Start free, no card required.
