Emergency alerts

Alerts from the people who can actually help

Your embassy sends. You choose how specific. We see nothing, not your name, not your location, not your phone. When something happens where you are, you hear it first, from the one source that should be telling you.

How specific do you want to be

Three levels. You pick, you change whenever

Set alerts country-wide, narrow them to your region, or zoom into your city. Your choice changes what lands in the app, nothing else.

Example uses Argentina · Buenos Aires Province · Buenos Aires city. Real setup happens in the app and changes any time.

Who is allowed to send

Only people whose job is to keep you safe

No newsletters. No social-media rumors. No Captain Waypoint marketing. Alerts come from verified official sources, period.

Your embassy

The only people allowed to send nation-wide alerts to you on Captain Waypoint. Staffed, accountable, verified.

Your consulate

Regional alerts from the consular team closest to you. Often the first to know when something happens locally.

Local civil protection

Opt-in only. Integrated from the country's official civil protection feed, when one exists.

Privacy by design

We see nothing. Your embassy sees a number

Alerts work because Captain Waypoint broadcasts. Nothing about you flows backwards. Your embassy gets an approximate headcount per area, and that is all, until you ask for help.

When you need to reach out

Two buttons. You choose which one

Most situations are not urgent. A lost passport, a missed flight, a question about insurance. For those, you send a short note, add context if you want, and your embassy responds. For the few moments that are urgent, there is a different button.

Location sharing is always a choiceWe never turn on your GPS. You decide, per message, whether to attach your precise location. Urgent mode makes it one tap.
Pick a button to see what the flow looks like. Nothing is sent, this is a preview.
Set it up once

Pick your country and your scope. Everything else, we keep quiet

Download the app, choose where you are, and let your embassy reach you when it matters. No account, no tracking, no surprises.
