The device works by being worn and pulled like a ripcord in the event of an emergency or an attack. This will send out an [SOS message to emergency contacts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/safety-alerts) and sound an alarm even if their phone is on silent to ensure they know their loved one is in need of assistance. The [GPS-enabled design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pebblebee-alert) of the device enables emergency contacts to see exactly where the user is in real-time on a map to head over themselves and/or call for help. The Alphahōm 'Care Go' personal alarm will deliver up to a years worth of use per hour charge thanks to its low-power design. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.3/10 - Popularity: 72% | Activity: 78% | Freshness: 9% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Gadgets](https://www.trendhunter.com/gadgets) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Personal Safety Wearables:** Develop safety wearables targeted for people looking for an extra layer of safety while going about their daily routine. - **Real-time GPS Tracking:** Develop GPS-enabled devices that provide live updates of people's location in case of emergencies. - **Phone Silent-detection Technology:** Innovate technology that can send an alert even if the recipient's phone is on silent mode in case of emergency. ### Who This Affects Most - **Personal Security:** Create products and services that ensure personal safety outside the home. - **Wearable Tech:** Design and manufacture innovative wearables that serve as extra layer of safety for people. - **Mobile Technology:** Integrate safety features with mobile devices and make personal safety accessible for everyone. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Connected Personal Safety Alarms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pom-safe.md) - [Senior-Targeted Wearable Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lifeline-canada.md) - [Connected Personal Safety Alarms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/switchbot-safety-alarm.md) - [Mobile Security System Sensors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/portable-security-device.md) - [Emergency Alert Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/protechme.md) - [Luxurious Safety Bracelets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luxurious-safety-bracelet.md) - [Employee-Focused Personal Safety Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/personal-safety-devices.md) - [Emergency Item Tracker Features](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pebblebee-alert.md) - [User-Friendly Personal Safety Technologies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/personal-safety-technology.md)
