Live Activity: Lone Worker Protection & Emergency Access

Ensure Lone Worker Protection with my-eforce and Live Activity

We are dedicated to making safety more accessible, efficient and user-friendly for professionals working alone. Whether you’re a real estate agent meeting clients, a commercial truck driver on the road, or a remote worker in a high-risk environment - quick access to safety tools can make all the difference.

That’s why we’re excited to introduce our latest feature: Live Activity. This powerful new enhancement to the my-eforce app is designed to improve usability in critical situations.

What is Live Activity?

Live Activity is a new always-on safety functionality that displays an active widget, like SafetyTimer® or Emergency SOS directly on your phone’s locked screen. This means that in a high-stress situation, you no longer have to unlock your phone to activate or disable these crucial safety features.

Instead of fumbling through multiple screens, the Live Activity feature ensures that your emergency settings are at your fingertips, providing instant control, visibility and peace of mind.

Why Live Activity is a must-have for lone workers

  • Faster Response Times: No need to unlock your phone to check your SafetyTimer® or trigger an Emergency SOS. Every second counts in an emergency.
  • Convenience & Accessibility: Whether you're driving, wearing gloves, or in a hurry, the Live Activity function ensures that essential safety features remain within reach.
  • Enhanced Awareness: The Live Activity display lets you instantly see if an Emergency SOS or SafetyTimer® is running, with the added ability to either deactivate it or allow it to trigger without opening the app.
  • Seamless User Experience: Designed with a clean, intuitive interface, ensuring that safety remains your priority, not app navigation.

How does Live Activity work?

The Live Activity feature integrates seamlessly with two of my-eforce’s most important safety tools:

1. SafetyTimer®

  • When a SafetyTimer® is running, it will now appear on your locked phone screen.
  • You can extend, disable, or reset the timer with a single tap from your lock screen on your phone.
  • If the timer expires and you haven’t disabled it, the my-eforce emergency response team is immediately notified.

2. Emergency SOS

  • If an Emergency SOS is triggered, the Live Activity widget will display a clear countdown before alerting the my-eforce emergency response team.
  • You can cancel the SOS alert directly from the lock screen if it was activated by mistake.
  • Ensures you have total control over emergency actions without unlocking your device.

Who benefits from the Live Activity feature?

  • Real Estate Agents: Stay protected while meeting new clients at vacant properties - quick access to your SafetyTimer® ensures someone knows where you are at all times.
  • Lone Workers: Whether you’re in construction, healthcare, or security, Live Activity allows you to monitor and adjust your safety settings without distractions.
  • Fleet & Logistics Professionals: Drivers can check their safety status on the go, without needing to pull over or navigate through their phone.
  • Anyone in Uncertain Situations: From night-shift workers to urban commuters, Live Activity offers peace of mind when navigating unpredictable environments.

Enabling Live Activity is quick and simple:

  1. Update the my-eforce app to the latest version (Available on iOS & Android).
  2. Go to Settings > Apps > my-eforce > Live Activity and toggle the feature ON.
  3. When a SafetyTimer® or Emergency SOS is activated, it will now display on your lock screen!
