How it works

If a jewelry owner experiences harassment, the person can call for backup by pushing their panic buttom three times, and notify nearby app nearby for support. If the backups accept, they will be routed to the caller, and can help them exit the situation.

In the all.u.me app it takes 3 minutes to be trained in 5 proven, simple, and safe strategies to intervene - the bystander intervention method is called “the 5D’s”.

all.u.me app user
Downloading the app is first step, if you want to join all.u.me either as caller or backup.
Set aside 3 min. to activate your account and take the bystander training in the all.u.me app.
Caller
Congratulations! If you have a smart jewelry with a personal safety device, we'll identify you as a caller. To active the wearable tech you will need to create a profile in the all.u.me app.
Backup
As backup you're committed to "have a callers back" if someone is in an uncomfortable situation. A backup dosen't need to buy a smart jewelry. The only requirement is to download the free all.u.me app, create a profile and take the 3 min. training in bystander intervention.

Become a backup

Download the app and create an all.u.me profile.

Complete the 3-minute training in bystander intervention and answer a few follow up questions - then you're ready to be a backup!

Unlock call feature

If you want to be able to call for backup, unlock the call feature.

If you only want to act as a backup, you can skip this step.

Calling for backup

Press the call button if you're in a situation where you'd like someone to help you exit.

We'll locate and notify the 20 backups closest to you.

Backups on their way

Backups nearby will receive a notification from all.u.me letting them know you're calling for backup.

They can either choose to accept or decline the call. The first 5 will be guided to your location and be reminded of the 5Ds on their way to you.

Being a backup

First task is to find the caller - which can be difficult, but we'll guide you.

Based on what you see, choose the intervention strategy you feel is most efficient. The app will provide suggestions on how to backup.

Your and your callers safety is the most important thing, so choose a strategy that will de-escalate the situation.

Sometimes, the best approach is to wait until more backups arrive before intervening.

Ending the call

When you have exited the situation - with or without a backup - end the call.

You will then be asked to share some feedback, so we can learn and improve all.u.me.

Something wrong?

After participating in a call as either a backup or a caller, you will be able to file a report on other participants if you had a bad experience.

Reporting is anonymous and can be submitted up to 14 days after the call took place.
