Sharewear vs. GPS Devices: Why Our Smart Bands Are the Better Choice for Safety and Medical Emergencies
When it comes to keeping our loved ones safe, especially children, the elderly, and those with special needs, technology offers various solutions. GPS devices are often a go-to choice for tracking location, but they have limitations, especially when critical information is needed in an emergency. This is where Sharewear stands out. Our smart bands, including medical bracelets and child ID bands, provide crucial contact and medical information that GPS devices simply cannot. Here’s why Sharewear is a superior safety solution, particularly for autistic children and others who may need urgent help.
Why GPS Devices Aren’t Enough
GPS devices are excellent for tracking someone’s location, but they fall short in one critical area—they don’t provide the important contact or medical information needed during emergencies. If an autistic child wanders off, a person with dementia gets lost, or someone with a medical condition is in distress, knowing their exact location is helpful, but it’s not enough. Emergency responders or good Samaritans need more than just coordinates; they need contact information, medical details, and instructions on how to help.
GPS devices often rely on batteries, signals, and require the user to carry them, which isn’t always practical or reliable, especially for children or individuals with cognitive impairments. When the battery dies or a signal is lost, the device becomes useless. Sharewear’s smart bands solve these problems by providing a direct and accessible way to share vital information.
The Sharewear Advantage: More Than Just Location
Sharewear bands are designed to be more than just a locator—they’re a lifeline. Our products work by storing digital profiles that can be accessed through a smartphone with a simple tap or QR code scan. This profile can include emergency contact details, medical conditions, allergies, and any other information that could be crucial in a critical moment.
Here’s how Sharewear excels where GPS falls short:
Instant Access to Contact Information:
Sharewear bands provide direct access to phone numbers, addresses, and any other contact details, ensuring that the right people can be reached immediately. For autistic children who may have difficulty communicating, this is especially vital.
Medical Alerts in Seconds:
In the event of a medical emergency, knowing a person’s condition can make all the difference. Sharewear’s medical alert bands are perfect for those with chronic conditions, allergies, or medications that responders need to be aware of right away.
No Batteries, No Charging
Unlike GPS devices, Sharewear bands don’t rely on batteries or charging. They work at any time, anywhere, simply by tapping a smartphone. This reliability is crucial, particularly when time is of the essence.
Safe and Secure Data:
Users control what information is shared on their Sharewear profile, ensuring privacy and security. There’s no need to worry about location tracking or data breaches because only the details you choose are displayed.
Discreet and Comfortable:
Sharewear bands are designed to look like everyday accessories, making them perfect for kids with autism who may not want to wear a noticeable or bulky device. Our bands are waterproof, durable, and comfortable to wear all day long.
A Great Solution for Autistic Children
For children with autism, Sharewear bands offer a unique sense of safety that GPS devices cannot. Many children with autism have a tendency to wander, and in those situations, communication can be a challenge. Sharewear bands provide a non-verbal way for first responders or good Samaritans to identify the child, understand their needs, and contact parents or caregivers immediately.
The simplicity of the tap-to-access technology makes it user-friendly, even for those unfamiliar with modern tech. Parents can rest assured knowing that even if their child cannot speak or communicate effectively, their Sharewear band can do the talking for them.
Perfect as a Medical Alert Bracelet
In medical emergencies, seconds matter. Sharewear bands serve as medical alert bracelets, offering quick access to life-saving information. Whether it’s a diabetic child, an elderly person with heart conditions, or someone with severe allergies, Sharewear’s smart bands provide crucial details that can guide responders in providing the right care.
Unlike traditional medical alert bracelets that only display limited information, Sharewear’s digital profiles can be updated at any time, ensuring that all details are current and relevant. This adaptability is essential for those with changing medical conditions.
Conclusion: More Than Just Location—True Safety and Peace of Mind
While GPS devices have their place in tracking location, Sharewear offers a comprehensive safety solution that goes beyond coordinates. With Sharewear’s child ID bands, medical alert bands, and smart bands, you’re not just finding someone—you’re connecting them to the help they need.
