Kushie Amin has recently become a fan of a certain app that has given her a sense of security and peace of mind. It was a late evening in August of 2021 and she found herself walking home alone after enjoying dinner with a friend who always seemed to run late. This time, they had lingered a little longer than planned due to their mutual love for sweets and indulging in a spontaneous dessert. As she made her way out of the train station and crossed the road, she couldn't help but feel a bit anxious and uneasy. In an attempt to calm her nerves, she took a deep breath and counted to ten, but before she even reached three, her mind was already racing with worries. What if she was attacked or assaulted on her walk home?
The streets were dark and quiet, almost eerily so, which only added to Kushie's unease. The occasional car would zoom by, but not frequently enough to make her feel safe. As she continued on her journey, she suddenly realized that she had forgotten her keys. This realization only heightened her paranoia and she could feel her chest tightening with fear. But then, she remembered something that put her mind at ease - her family knew her exact location at all times thanks to an app they had all agreed to download.
Just a week before, her sister had suggested they try out Life360, a location tracking app that she and her husband had been using for years. Tired of constantly texting each other to coordinate their schedules, they had found this app to be a convenient way to keep track of each other's whereabouts. Now, Kushie's family could see her entire journey - when she left the train station and how far away she was from home. It was a huge relief for her and she breathed a sigh of relief.
The idea of using a location tracking app initially made Kushie skeptical. She couldn't help but wonder if it was a way for her family to monitor her every move and if there was something that had sparked their suspicion. But after living in France for a year, she realized how reassuring it was for her family to see her safe and sound, especially when she was living in a foreign country. This app had become an automatic safety measure for her, as she always made sure to have her keys in hand, with the biggest one between her knuckles, just in case.
This sense of security and peace of mind is something that many women long for, especially in light of the ongoing epidemic of violence against women. It's a topic that has been brought to the forefront by Metro's year-long campaign, This Is Not Right. With the help of Women's Aid, this campaign aims to raise awareness and empower readers to take action against violence towards women. It's a crucial issue that affects countless women and their stories need to be heard.
So if you or someone you know has a story to share, please don't hesitate to reach out and join the conversation. Together, we can work towards ending this epidemic and creating a safer world for all women.
Kushie Amin has discovered a lifesaving app that gives her family real-time updates of her location. It was a late evening in August 2021 and Kushie was on her way home after dinner with a friend who was always running behind schedule. This time, they had indulged in dessert and ended up spending more time than intended. As she walked out of the station, Kushie took a moment to calm her nerves and reassure herself of her safety. However, her concerns escalated as she walked down the dark and quiet street, with only occasional cars passing by. To add to her worries, Kushie realized she had forgotten her keys, which she usually carries in a defensive manner to protect herself from potential attackers.
But just as paranoia started to set in, Kushie remembered that her family could track her location through an app they had all agreed to download. This gave her a sense of relief and comfort, knowing that her loved ones were aware of her journey and whereabouts. The app, called Life360, had been suggested by her sister who had been using it with her husband for years. It had become a convenient way for them to coordinate dinner plans and save time by knowing when the other person was on their way home from work.
Kushie was initially hesitant to join the app, wondering if it was a way for her family to monitor her actions. But she soon realized the practical benefits of it, especially when she was living in France last year and her family could easily keep track of her safety. The app had also become a part of a larger campaign by Metro, called "This Is Not Right," which aims to address the rampant violence against women. With the help of their partner, Women's Aid, Metro hopes to raise awareness and empower readers on this important issue.
Through this campaign, Metro will share stories that shed light on the magnitude of this epidemic and encourage readers to speak up and take action. If you have a story to share, you can reach out to them via email. The ultimate goal is to create a safer environment for women and put an end to violence against them. Kushie's experience with Life360 is just one example of how technology can be used for good and bring peace of mind to those who need it.
