Alert is, and will always be, free. Alert Live is an upgraded paid subscription plan that increases your Safety Circle members to 5 trusted contacts as well as sharing your live location instead of a static map.

Both now offer a silent mode without the siren & strobe for discreet notifications.

Press the Clip’s button rapidly until you see the LEDs flash and audible siren to confirm Alert is active.

Add the people you trust — roommates, parents, friends. The free tier supports one contact and Alert Live supports 5 contacts.

They receive an SMS with your location, allowing them to call, text, or navigate straight to you. For Alert Live customers, they will receive live location instead of a static map offered in the free version.

Yes. Alert Live offers live location sharing while the free version sends a one-time map location.

Absolutely. As long as your phone has data coverage, the Pebblebee cloud can notify your Safety Circle almost anywhere in the world.

No. The Alert functionality including the siren, strobe, and first Safety Circle contact is and will always be completely free. The Alert Live paid subscription is optional for the additional features.

Alert runs through the Pebblebee app on both iOS 16.2+ and Android 9+. Meanwhile, the Clip’s everyday tracking integrates with Apple Find My for iPhone users or Google’s Find Hub for Android users.

They continue for up to 1 minute or until you manually stop Alert with another rapid-press burst or single long press.

No. The Pebblebee app on your new device and your Clip, Alert settings, and Safety Circle carry over automatically.

Pebblebee uses end-to-end encryption. Only you and the contacts you invite can view the Alert location pin; we never sell or share that data with third parties.

No. They receive your coordinates only when Alert is triggered. The rest of the time, your location stays private.

While other competing item finders require a monthly subscription or do not have on-device strobe lights nor loud sirens, Pebblebee Alert works right out of the box with one Safety Circle contact.

Safety needs to always be within reach. Niche personal alarms may offer a loud alarm but can be bulky or not readily reachable. Nor can they help you find your lost items or share your location digitally. Pebblebee Clip does both: item finding every day and Alert protection when you need it.

Stop it with either a second rapid-press burst or a single long press. Your Safety Circle will get a follow-up message if Alert is canceled.

Open the Safety tab in the Pebblebee app. It lists every Circle you’re in, shows who’s accepted, who’s pending, and lets you resend invites with one tap.

All they have to do is open the SMS invitation Pebblebee sends on your behalf and tap the link; they will then need to confirm their phone number and accept or reject your invitation.

No. Your contacts receive Alert notifications via SMS and can view your location in a secure mobile browser; they don’t need to download the Pebblebee app unless they want to.

No. Alert is exclusive to Pebblebee Clip. Card, Tag and other products remain great item finders, but they don’t include the Alert safety mode.
