My app of the week allows you to reach out to friends and family when you've made it to your destination safe and sound.Sorry! There's no video this week! But I have provided screenshots for my app of the week called "Companion."

The minute I came across 'Companion,' I thought this is perfect!

School is starting again, and this app is useful to keep an eye on your loved ones when they're on the move. 'Companion'  serves as a companion so your friend or family member never travels alone.

All you have to do is enter where you're heading and choose "companions" from your contact list, then a notification is sent to your companions.

You can also contact local police using 'Companion,' with just two taps on the app.

While using this app, I thought how great it would have been to have while in college. I prefer it over iPhone's Friend Finder because it provides a live map you can follow along. Also with all the crazy stuff going on in the news, I know this app would have made my mother feel better whenever I traveled.

'Companion' is free for Apple and Androids.

See how it works in the gallery below!:
