Check in once a day when you're fine. Miss it? Your emergency contacts are automatically notified — no GPS, no live location feed, no surveillance.
Lunio is a daily check-in app for solo travelers who want an automatic safety net — without sharing their whereabouts. You set a check-in interval, tap once when everything is fine, and if you miss it, your trusted contacts receive an email or SMS alert. Your location is never collected, shared, or stored. Not once.
Most travel safety apps require you to broadcast your GPS coordinates to a server or emergency contact at all times. Lunio works on a different model: your silence raises the alarm, not your location. That makes it useful for everyday solo travel — and better for your privacy.
Most solo travel safety apps broadcast your GPS coordinates in real time. Lunio works the opposite way — your contacts only hear from the app when something is wrong.
You confirm you're okay at set intervals. If you miss the window, contacts are alerted automatically. Your location is never shared. Privacy by default.
Your GPS coordinates are shared continuously with a server, a third party, or your contacts. Useful for real-time rescue. Requires giving up location privacy 24/7.
Both models have their place. Lunio is the right choice when privacy matters — or when you simply don't want your every move tracked across a map. For wilderness rescues requiring GPS coordinates, a dedicated emergency beacon is a better fit.
Set it up once before you leave. Takes about two minutes.
Choose daily, every 2 days, or every 3 days. Add your trusted contacts — family, friends, or anyone who should know you're okay.
One tap each day sends your signal. Push reminders arrive before your window closes — so you never accidentally miss one while distracted exploring.
No check-in means automatic email alerts to your contacts. SMS follows on paid plans. You don't have to do anything — silence triggers the alarm.
Heading out for a solo hike, late-night walk, or an activity with a fixed time window? Start a countdown. If you don't check back in, contacts are alerted automatically.
Lunio works in any country with an internet connection. Email alerts reach contacts globally. No additional roaming setup needed.
Your location is never requested, collected, or stored — not even temporarily. No GPS permission is needed to use Lunio.
Back home? Staying with people? Pause check-ins with a single tap — no alerts go out while paused. Resume when you're off again.
Write your own message that contacts receive when you miss a check-in — include your travel itinerary, accommodation details, or emergency instructions.
See your check-in status and next due time at a glance from your home screen — no need to open the app. Available on paid plans.
Free to start. No location tracking. Works anywhere in the world.
Not an emergency service. Best-effort notifications.
