ChiGuard is a safety-driven, community-powered app built specifically for Chicago’s CTA riders. Our mission is to provide peace of mind for commuters—by enabling real-time incident reporting, group ride coordination, and emergency alert tools tailored to the city’s unique public transit system. ChiGuard empowers riders to take safety into their own hands, together.
ChiGuard is a safety-first, community-powered app built specifically for Chicago CTA riders. It offers real-time train tracking, group ride coordination with verified users, and an emergency SOS feature that alerts both authorities and fellow riders on the same train line.
No. ChiGuard is an independent safety tool developed to support and protect riders. While it uses publicly available data to enhance user experience, it is not officially endorsed or affiliated with the Chicago Transit Authority.
The SOS feature instantly triggers a loud audio alert, shares your GPS location with emergency services, displays a message saying “Authorities are on their way,” and notifies other ChiGuard users currently on your train line — helping you stay protected and visible in real time.
Zip…zero…nadda..this is an app designed to improve the safety of public transit riders.
