Description
Whether you’re on your travels, at a festival with friends or on a night out, Flare has your back! Join hundreds of thousands of users who are protecting themselves from dangerous situations such as, spiking and harassment.
4 ways Flare keeps you safe and protected:
Incident Avoidance: Vehicle operators are alerted to your presence, prompting them to exercise increased caution and prevent potential accidents.
Incident Detection: Flare can recognise and detect if you have been involved in an accident. Flare will give you 30 seconds to respond – if no response is detected your emergency contacts will be notified of your live location ensuring a quick response time.
Flare’s unique incident detection algorithm is the most accurate in the world with an industry-leading accuracy rate of 99.99%. Over 100 million data points have been collected in danger zones, near-misses, and incident hotspots across over 125 countries.
SOS: Send out an SOS if you feel threatened or unsafe at any given moment. This sends your live location link to your emergency contacts, using What3words, enabling help can be found efficiently.
Hazards: Flare automatically warns you if a reported hazard is approaching, allowing you to navigate potholes, ice, debris and more quickly and safely. You can also quickly report hazards to the wider community too and help improve safety in your area.
Auto Protect automatically turns Flare on in the background when you’re active and out of your safe zone, so you don’t have to worry about launching the app each time. This means you are always protected!

1 ★ Totally inaccurate. Google health 84km Vs Busby 14km.
2 ★ Wanted this for when I was out cycling or mountain biking on my own. Had to uninstall as it kept activating although not turned on and kept asking me to change settings so that location was always on.
3 ★ For me, the app works only on Wi-Fi. The moment I change to mobile data, the app starts to freze and is not responding to my comanda. I like a lot the concept and with some bug fixes the app might be the best.
5 ★ Great app. I love the smart start feature as it automatically protects me when I exercise out alone.
4 ★ Overall very good and a thoughtful team at Busby. There is a current issue (being worked on) with GPS status showing incorrectly but if you press 'GO' it does work as normal. Emergency contacts can be added using the plus function straight from your phone contacts which is great - the contact search function did not work for me but again the Busby team were quick to respond and are looking at it. Keep up the good work !
2 ★ If it would work, it would be great. I got false triggers when taking phone out of my pocket or when phone sitting on lap. Has also locked up app twice and required 3 times that I sign in again. Buzzer stopped working on 3rd ride. Only had it 1 week. I hope these issues can be fixed because it's a brilliant idea, could be a life saver but false triggers with no buzzer are unacceptable.
1 ★ App doesn't work, initially locked on the opening screen then won't allow me to login. Uninstall app and tried again, still won't allow me to login. When it worked it was good, however, I need reliability every time I use it due to a medical condition...
2 ★ Cannot seem to get it open, could do with a bit more information on how to start it, when you can finally get into it. The ideas good, but just doesn't seem to work well, I'm going to uninstall it and wait for it to be improved before installing again, and giving it another try.
5 ★ Such a useful app, especially for someone who isn't that confident on the road. Gives that extra reassurance and really easy to use.
5 ★ Highly recommended. I went out for a long training ride and had an accident when I fell in the middle of the country. It notified my mum who knew exactly where I was and was able to help me thanks to these guys.
1 ★ Not used yet but as I intended to give you feedback I've just updated in readiness, BUT, now all I get is a yellow screen with BUSBY written in the middle. Galaxy s20 5g
5 ★ Fantastic app! My family and I love the reassurance we get from using this! Would highly recommend!
5 ★ Educational and easy to follow.
5 ★ Easy to use, looks smart, best of all it works!
5 ★ Fantastic user friendly app. Would recommend to any fellow riding enthusiast
