Invisawear safety- Smart jewelry & accessories
- Meet invisaWear, the most discreet personal safety device – It looks like an everyday accessory (a necklace, bracelet, keychain, fitness band, or even a hair scrunchie) but there’s a button hidden on the back. Double clicking the button allows you to instantly alert your friends, family, or optionally police that you need help. An SMS message lets them know you’re requesting help and sends them a link to your live location.
