Frequently Asked Questions
What trail details should I include?
Include the trail name, trailhead location, your planned route, and expected return time. If the trail has multiple entry points, specify which one you're using.
How long should I set the timer for a hike?
Set it for your expected hike duration plus a 30-60 minute buffer. Trails often take longer than expected due to terrain, weather, or rest breaks.
What if I lose cell signal on the trail?
This web-based timer runs in your browser, so it needs an active connection. For offline hiking safety, download the ImAlive app which can work with intermittent connectivity.
Want automatic hiking check-ins?
Download the ImAlive app for GPS-aware check-ins that work even in areas with spotty coverage. Real alerts sent to your emergency contacts.
