Bluetooth Technology
All Flare bracelets have a Bluetooth Low Energy technology module on the underside of the jewelry that sits on-top of the wrist and connects to the Get Flare iOS app. Activate Flare by pressing the hidden button on the side of the module. No need to touch your phone.
-
iPhone Requirements
iOS (Android is not currently offered). Wifi or cellular service. Bluetooth connection enabled. Location settings enabled.
-
Bluetooth Range
Your iPhone, with the Get Flare iOS app, needs to be within bluetooth range of the bracelet in order for the signal to go out.
Flare works 100% of the time at a range of 10 feet between the bracelet and mobile device, for example your phone may be in a bag on the other side of a room or across a vehicle. It can work up to 30-50ft away depending on the surroundings, including from different rooms. We recommend testing the range in your home environment to get a feel for it yourself because bluetooth ranges vary depending on your physical surroundings and obstacles.

FAQs
If you feel uncomfortable or unsafe and want to use your Flare bracelet, there are two subtle actions you can take to gain control and exit the situation. The first is to simply hold down the small button on your bracelet to send your friends your GPS location so they can check on you.
You can also include a simultaneous alert to a trained agent who can send 911 to your location – this free and optional feature can be turned on or off anytime.
The second option is to press the button once to trigger a fake call to your phone so you have an excuse to leave. Find a full "How It Works" video here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B_u-UPeF4E0&ab_channel=Flare
When you receive a call or message from Flare, it will come from the same number every time. Your crew will also get your text message alerts from this number. There are 10 numbers to choose from in the app. You can change it anytime based on personal preferences or to better suit your specific phone carrier.
The app will help you add these number as a contact in your phone. Give it any name you choose. This will help the phone call look and feel real - like a friend or family member is calling you.
No. To ensure that Flare is easy-to-use and always ready to activate, each bracelet comes with a battery you will never have to charge. Each bracelet's battery lasts 1 year. We track your battery usage automatically and let you know (via email and text) before it is time to purchase a discounted replacement bracelet.
Keep the same style or upgrade to a new one. This ensures that your bracelet is always ready-to-go because we want you to be prepared no matter what. You can never predict when you will need Flare.
Flare was developed over the course of 4 years, with extensive user research, testing, and feedback from thousands. In order to fit our tech into jewelry (that actually looks like jewelry) we had to make the batteries not rechargeable or replaceable.
For our first product we knew the discretion of it looking like jewelry was vital to making the product actually effective in an unsafe moment and that is why we made this tradeoff. Our beta users, who first tried a rechargeable version, constantly forgot to charge their bracelet, felt guilty about not having it ready when they needed it, didn't like the bulkiness of it (looked like tech not jewelry), and frankly hated the burden of having to charge it.
We want Flare to always be discreet, effective, and ready for you when you need it.But we also are conscientious of the environmental impact of putting your safety first (pun intended) in this tradeoff - so while we thought it was important to get a tool for better safety out right away (because let's be honest it's about time) we are still innovating and exploring refurbishment/recycling options for used Flare bracelets.

Flare is for anyone that wants to feel confident and in control, in any situation. Whether you want to have backup when you’re alone or be able to exit an iffy situation before things escalate, Flare is a simple way to take back your agency – without raising any alarms. Safety is connecting, supporting, and protecting each other – a massive responsibility that demands an equally massive effort. One that we work towards every day. It’s time we celebrate that. But not without acknowledging how this constant need for protection affects all of us. Safety doesn’t have an age and it doesn’t have a gender.
