SafeNight is a walking app that helps pedestrians find safer routes at night. It scores each street segment on six factors: crime density, street lighting, CCTV coverage, road type, open businesses and foot traffic. It suggests alternative routes with turn-by-turn navigation, runs on Android and the web, and has a free tier.
Why SafeNight exists
SafeNight is for people walking at night who want to choose a safer route, not only the quickest one. It compares walking routes and shows how each one scores on the factors that matter after dark, so you can make an informed choice before you set off.
Where SafeNight is based
SafeNight's legal notices give its location as Plymouth, UK.
How it uses public data
SafeNight uses public data to score streets. This includes UK Police street-level crime data for England and Wales, and OpenStreetMap data for roads, street lighting, CCTV, transit and open businesses. Read how SafeNight scores walking routes for the full method.
Responsibility
SafeNight gives guidance, not guarantees. Scores are estimates from public data and can be out of date or incomplete. Always use your own judgement, and in an emergency call 999.
