Wyze

Wyze enables people to discretely ask for help when they really need it.

When you're under duress, you can't just blatantly call or text for help. To combat this, many people form code words with other people so that they can secretly indicate that everything isn't fine. But this requires two people to know a code word and if the other person doesn't recognize or remember the word, then the whole system fails. With Wyze, anyone can setup a code word and discretely ask for help.

Here's how it works:

1. You create a code word.
2. You select who you want Wyze to text if it recognizes the code word.
