Technology offers ways to improve almost every aspect of our lives, adding convenience here, new capabilities there, and often giving us ways to make ourselves and our families safer. The AngelSense GPS does just that for families with children who have autism or other special needs by helping parents keep track of their children when they wander.
All children have a sense of exploration, but children with autism are especially prone to wandering. And, for parents, the experience of a child wandering off and getting lost is a nightmare best avoided. AngelSense ensures that your child is easy to find wherever they go.
The AngelSense GPS device pairs with an app, and together, they offer convenient tools for keeping track of your child and getting them home safely if they’ve wandered. The device can attach to clothing or be fitted on a special belt, shirt or sleeve, so your child can comfortably and discretely wear it, and a tamper-proof locking system will prevent them or anyone else from removing it.
Geofencing allows you to designate areas like home or school where your child will regularly be, and AngelSense alerts you if they’ve left that area. If they are still at a location past the time they’d normally leave, AngelSense warns you about the late departure.
The app offers real-time location updates in map view through its Runner Mode that you share with your preset list of friends, family and first responders in an emergency, allowing an easy, fast, and synced search to quickly bring your child home safely. The device tracks accurately using GPS outside, and also offers indoor tracking using WiFi hotspots when available.
Effectively, AngelSense combines all of its features to make it easy for you to know if your child has gone somewhere they shouldn’t be, to quickly find them, and to get them back safely.
If your child is nearby but hiding or in a crowd, an audible alarm on the device helps you find them. If they are lost in a mall or other large facility, the indoor tracking via WiFi hotspot helps you locate them when a normal GPS signal is unavailable.
AngelSense even features a set of communication tools. “Listen-In” lets you hear their surroundings, so you know where they are and what’s happening around them. And, a 2-way voice function lets you talk to them to guide them home, or talk to nearby people who can help.
AngelSense also helps you remember to keep it charged and put it on your child with nightly and daily reminders.
With all of AngelSense’s tracking and communication features, you’ll be able to breathe easier while your child is out and about, and they can enjoy a bit more autonomy.
AngelSense keeps all the information secure on Amazon’s AWS secure cloud, so you won’t have to worry about your child’s location data getting into the wrong hands.
The AngelSense GPS device costs about as much as a cheap phone, and the service is comparable to a cheap mobile plan, but the security features far outweigh what a phone offers. AngelSense even offers a risk-free trial for parents. You can test out AngelSense for 30 days, and if you’re not satisfied with the improved security and assurance it offers your family, you get your money back.
You should never have to worry about the safety of your child, but the unfortunate truth is they are prone to exploring, and young, autistic, or other special needs children are at a greater risk. AngelSense can give you the peace of mind knowing that when they go wandering, you’ll always be able to find them and bring them home safe.
