Abstract - Mobile Application for Women Safety is a step towards treating the increasing issues of women safety, especially in terms of immediate support. Most women in this era are susceptible to all kinds of threats like harassment, physical violence, or stalking when they are alone or in a new place. It can save hours in these situations if there is some speedy and certain method of asking for assistance. This is a safety buddy cell phone program. It can be used with Android phones, the most popular and used, and therefore will be available to the majority of people. The program enables a woman under threat to send an SOS (Save Our Souls) message within seconds. While other alert programs are just alerts, this program has an audio and video capability so that the user is able to broadcast or capture whatever is occurring around her. This offers crucial evidence and helps the responders realize the gravity of the situation. One of the strongest selling points of the app is being able to view and connect with other users nearby. When a woman triggers an SOS, the app locates users in the immediate vicinity—friends, family, or volunteers, say—who can dial the phone call and respond. This network of support from the community is quicker and more instantaneous than using the usual emergency services, particularly in a life-or-death scenario. The app is based on newer Android technologies and is developed with security, speed, and usability. This makes the users, even non-computer-literate individuals, able to use the app without any delay or inconvenience. It makes the interaction extremely user-friendly to the extent that one can seek assistance in under three touches. Besides, the app instills a culture of safety and peer support. Not only can women call for help, but others can also respond to SOS calls so that there is a safer social environment. Briefly, the app seeks to empower women by providing them with control over their safety. It utilizes the strength of mobile technology to facilitate instant communication, capture real-time evidence, and bring people together around, so no woman ever feels lost or isolated at the moment of need. keyword: Women Safety App, SOS Alert System, Emergency
