An Australian team with heart.
Safe Call Up was created by people who’ve worked on the frontline with domestic and family violence victim-survivors. We’ve seen the gaps. We’ve listened to the stories. And we’ve built a tool that puts safety back in the hands of those who need it most.
Developed by Australian advocates and tech experts, Safe Call Up combines smart, secure technology with deep community understanding — all to help make every person, every home, and every community safer.
We’re especially committed to supporting First Nations communities with culturally respectful and geographically tailored tools.

The vision is clear — and now we’re building it.
Safe Call Up is currently in development. We’re working with Australian tech experts and the DV support sector to make sure every feature is safe, private, and effective from day one. Your support now helps shape what comes next.

Supporters — Friends or family supporting someone at risk are encouraged to connect and share their perspective.
Partner organisations — We’re looking to collaborate with DV services, legal aid, and community groups.
Potential sponsors — If you can help fund or promote this work, we’d love to hear from you.

Not yet — Safe Call Up is currently in development. We're working closely with Australian experts, advocates, and tech teams to ensure it’s safe, secure, and ready for real-world use.
Yes. The core version of Safe Call Up will always be free to download. Ongoing funding from sponsors and grants helps us keep it accessible for everyone who needs it.
Safe Call Up is designed for people experiencing domestic or family violence, as well as friends, family, and support services who want to help. It's especially focused on serving First Nations communities and those in regional and remote areas.
The app will include localised access to support across Australia, including 1800RESPECT, Legal Aid, and nearby shelters like women’s refuges in NSW, Victoria, and beyond.
To protect users, the app is hidden behind a decoy (like a weather or news app) and unlocked with a private code. This means it can’t be easily discovered by someone monitoring the phone.
Yes — we’d love to hear from you. Survivors, supporters, professionals, and partners are all encouraged to get in touch via the enquiry form.
We work with existing services, not against them.
Safe Call Up supports safety planning and help-seeking, but doesn’t replace case workers or legal support.
The app will evolve based on feedback from survivors and sector professionals.
