Does live location show a building floor?

Feature availability

Instructions for My Safe Circle describe version 2.2, still in development and beta, and not released in app stores. Installed versions may lack the feature; interface and behaviour may change during testing.

Coordinates and indoor address

A map may place a device near a building without separating people on different floors. The My Safe Circle manual promises no floor, room or apartment identification.

Describe the final approach

For a meeting, name a public entrance, floor and visible landmark. Avoid access codes and unnecessary private details. For example: north entrance, first floor, beside the lift.

Try a familiar building

With a consenting contact, compare their street view with your indoor description. Do not read small point changes as stair climbing. A point may be recent yet inaccurate.

Choose a reachable meeting point

In a complex building, prefer a recognisable public spot. Speak directly if the entrance is unclear rather than chasing the pin. In an urgent situation give the appropriate service the full address too.
