About NetGarden

NetGarden is a personal safety app with a home network app tucked inside it.

It was built for the late night walks. For the Airbnb you're not quite sure about. For the moment you'd feel better knowing one person knew where you were. Everything in it is designed to be usable at your worst moment.

🌸 SAFE WALK — a check-in timer with a safety net
Tell it where you're headed and when you should be there, and pick one trusted contact. If you don't tap "I'm safe" by then, NetGarden texts that person your location automatically.

You don't have to open the app or even unlock your phone. The check-in arrives as a notification, and if you're just running late, "+30 min" is one tap. It keeps counting with the screen off, and it tells you honestly how old your location is rather than sending a stale one as though it were current.

🌸 CHECK THIS SPACE — for rooms that aren't yours
Hotels, rentals, changing rooms. NetGarden sweeps the Wi-Fi for devices that look like cameras and listens for Bluetooth trackers left nearby. It tells you what it found — and, just as importantly, what it genuinely can't rule out.

🌸 FIND A TRACKER — walk it down
Got an alert about an AirTag, Tile or SmartTag you don't recognise? A live radar gets warmer as you get closer, so you can find where it's actually hidden: a bag lining, a coat pocket, a wheel arch. It can also ask compatible tags to play their sound. Trackers you own can be named, so your keys and your cat's collar stop setting off alarms.

🌸 SAFE PLACE — one tap directions
Police, a hospital, or somewhere open and busy. Directions to the nearest one, in a single tap.

🌿 YOUR WI-FI, AS A GARDEN
Every device on your home Wi-Fi is a flower in your garden. Name them — "Mum's iPad", "the doorbell", "downstairs telly" — and anything that shows up unnamed becomes obvious immediately. See what's connected right now, what's asleep, and what turned up today. One tap opens your router's own settings page, where the Wi-Fi password and device blocking live.

Devices are remembered per network, so the printer at your office never turns up in your kitchen.

⚡ SPEED
A real speed test with a live gauge, and a history so you can tell "it's always been like this" from "something changed today".

🔧 ADVANCED TOOLS — tucked away, for when you're curious
Website Checkup (who's behind a link, and whether it's safe to trust), My Wi-Fi Signal, Reply Check, The Journey, Open Doors, Network Space, Nudge Awake and My Network Info. All of them explain their answer in plain English instead of handing you a wall of numbers. They live behind an "Advanced" door, so they're never in your way.

🔒 PRIVACY — the part that actually matters
No account. No login. No server of ours.

Everything NetGarden learns about your home and your devices stays on your phone. We cannot see it, because there is nowhere for it to go. No ads, no analytics, no crash reporting, no tracking of any kind. Your device list and settings are kept out of Android's cloud backup too.

The only time anything personal leaves your phone is the Safe Walk alert you set up yourself: one message, to the one person you chose, through your own mobile carrier. Not to us. Not to anyone else.

Clear all data wipes everything, everywhere, because everywhere is just here.

WHAT NETGARDEN IS NOT
It doesn't track you or share your location in the background — location is read only while you're using it, and it never asks for background location permission. It can't see through walls, and no app can guarantee it finds every hidden camera or tracker, so it tells you what it checked instead of promising you're safe. It only scans the network your own phone is connected to. And it will never sign into a router for you — it opens the page, you decide the rest.

Made with care, for anyone who'd like a bit more peace of mind. 🌸
