Your family's safety net, quietly running in the background.
BuddyButton is a safety app that automatically notifies your trusted contacts in an emergency, so your children are never left without help if something happens to you.
Why we built BuddyButton
One night, as parents to newborn twin boys, we asked ourselves a morbid question: if something happened to both of us in the middle of the night, how long would it take for anyone to come and help our kids?
How would they get out of their cots? How would they tell anyone they need help? How long would it take for someone to come and check on them? The honest answer was, we didn't know. And that wasn't good enough for us.
So we built BuddyButton.
What is BuddyButton
BuddyButton connects you to a circle of trusted people, your Buddies. If something goes wrong, they're notified instantly. No panic, no guessing, no delay. It's free to download and takes minutes to set up.
