Blitzl Blast for College Campuses. One Tap. Parents Know.

For decades, standard blue light panic button kiosks have provided visible peace of mind on college grounds. But emergencies don't wait until your student is standing outdoors next to a pole.

Traditional campus blue light stations are sparsely located, fixed outdoors along specific walkways, and completely unreachable from inside dorms, libraries, lecture halls, or off-campus housing.

Campus Safety That Follows Your Student Everywhere

Blitzl Blast works in conjunction with existing campus emergency infrastructure—giving your student a portable, personal safety device that works both indoors and outdoors, anywhere they go.

Important Operating Requirements for Bluetooth Safety Buttons

Please Note: The Blitzl Blast physical button relies on an active Bluetooth connection to a powered on smartphone to transmit information through WiFi and cellular networks to joined users and contacts.

  • Range Limitations: The system will not function if the smartphone is stored outside of Bluetooth range from where the button is pressed.

  • Signal Isolation: The system will not function if the smartphone is placed inside a Bluetooth-blocking or Faraday container, pouch, or locker that restricts wireless signals.

  • Powered On Requirement: The system will not function if the smartphone is turned off.
