SafeWalk: Walk & Text Camera

Ever walked into a pole while answering a message?

SafeWalk Mirror puts a small live camera window on top of whatever app you're using — Messages, WhatsApp, your browser — showing the path in front of you while you look down at your phone. Your screen becomes see-through in the corner of your eye.

Think of it as the mirror in a car. It doesn't drive for you. It just means you're not blind for three seconds at a time.

THE FLOATING WINDOW — FREE FOREVER
A small, draggable live camera view that floats above any other app. Tap to enlarge, drag it anywhere on screen, set the size and transparency you like. It keeps working while you text, read, scroll or wait for a train.

OBSTACLE ALERTS
On-device detection watches the path ahead and warns you with escalating sound and vibration when something appears to be getting closer. Green means the path is clear. Amber means caution, something is ahead. Red means it's closing in — look up now.

LOOK-UP REMINDERS
A gentle chime every few minutes reminds you to raise your eyes. Yes: an app that tells you to stop staring at your phone. That is on purpose, and it is part of the product.

FULL-SCREEN MODE
Don't want an overlay? Use the in-app mirror instead and keep the whole screen on the path.

TUNE IT TO HOW YOU WALK
Sensitivity (Low, Medium, High), alert tones, volume, vibration, window size and transparency.

WHO ACTUALLY USES THIS
- People who text while walking and are honest about it
- Commuters crossing crowded stations and busy pavements
- Anyone with low vision or reduced neck mobility who wants a second pair of eyes
- Parents pushing a stroller with one hand and a phone in the other
- Tourists following a map through an unfamiliar street

NO SUBSCRIPTION. NOT NOW, NOT LATER.
The floating window is free forever. One single purchase — never a subscription, and no ads anywhere — unlocks SafeWalk Pro: obstacle detection, escalating alerts, sensitivity levels and alert tones. You buy it once and you keep it.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Everything runs on your phone. No account, no sign-up, no analytics, no internet connection required. Camera frames are processed in memory and are never stored and never uploaded — check the "No data collected" badge on this listing. The app works in airplane mode.

BUILT-IN HONESTY
SafeWalk Mirror is a supplemental awareness aid, not a substitute for looking up. It cannot see outside the camera's view — including curbs, stairs, and fast vehicles — and detection can miss things. Never rely on it when crossing streets or near traffic. The app makes you read and accept these limits before first use, keeps a persistent notification with one-tap Stop whenever the camera is active, and reminds you to look up while you walk.

The safest way to use your phone while walking is still to stop walking. For every other moment, SafeWalk Mirror keeps one eye on the path.
