How much mobile data does GetHomeSafe use?

In a typical month, most users can expect GetHomeSafe to use approximately 20–100 MB of data. For context, this is generally much less than common activities like browsing social media or streaming a short video clip.

Actual data usage may fluctuate slightly from month to month depending on how you use the app, including:

Frequency of use
- For example, running the app all day, every day with multiple activities and check-ins will use more data than occasional or intermittent use (such as a few times per week).
Use of 3rd party apps or integrations
- If you connect GetHomeSafe with compatible third-party apps, devices, or additional check-in features, these may contribute to slightly higher data usage.
Check-in and automated tracking frequency
- Increasing how often check-ins, location updates, or automated welfare monitoring events are triggered (for instance, very frequent location updates for higher-risk work) will result in more data being used than lower-frequency settings.

Overall, GetHomeSafe is intentionally optimised to minimise data consumption while still providing robust, real-time safety monitoring. This means organisations can support large numbers of mobile and lone workers without placing unnecessary load on mobile data plans.

How much mobile data does GetHomeSafe use?

GetHomeSafe does not use data-intensive functions such as video streaming, music streaming, or the transfer of large photo files. The app has been designed to be highly efficient, using only small amounts of mobile data for safety monitoring and check-ins.
