Blitzl Blast for K-12. One Tap. Parents Know.

Bridge the gap created by classroom smartphone bans. Give your child a dedicated, one-touch wearable button for immediate emergency alerting to parents and trusted contacts.

Keeping Families Connected During Phone-Free School Days

As state and local school districts across the country enact smartphone bans in the classroom, student phones are increasingly stored away in backpacks, lockers, or pouches during instructional hours. While phone-free environments reduce classroom distractions, parents still need peace of mind when unexpected safety issues or emergencies arise.

The Blitzl Blast wearable button allows your child to contact you without needing to unlock, navigate, or interact with a smartphone screen.

How the Blitzl Blast School Safety Network Works

  1. The Wearable Blast Button: Compact and durable hardware that gives students immediate physical access to default messaging without handling a phone.

  2. Fixed & Mobile Blitzer Network: GPS and available sensor infrastructure can help pinpoint location within multi-building or multi-level campus environments.

  3. Smart Companion App: Runs on the smartphone to route messages, locations, and nearby sensor data to parents, guardians, and chosen emergency lists instantly.

Important Operating Requirements for Bluetooth Safety Buttons

Please Note: The Blitzl Blast physical button relies on an active Bluetooth connection to your child's powered on smartphone to transmit information through WiFi and cellular networks to parents 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.

Ensure your child’s school phone policy permits the phone to remain within standard Bluetooth proximity and outside signal-shielding enclosures for continuous protection.
