About this app

Sometimes life is not what we expect. Difficult and unexpected circumstances can arise such as being absent from a loved one. You're not on your own as absent is here to help.

Anyone can become a missing person either voluntarily or in some cases involuntarily. A missing person is anyone whose whereabouts cannot be established. They will be considered as missing until located, and their well-being or otherwise confirmed.

Understanding the reasons why people go missing can be very traumatic for the family, friends and associates left behind. With this in mind Absent™ is here for everyone who is left present in their absence.

The ​​Absent™​ ​app has been created to help raise awareness and provide a means of report sightings of missing people ​​across the World.

Report ​a missing person - Write a full description, upload multiple images and mark the location last seen. Users can comment and upload additional images or mark location on a map of a sighting. Each time a user comments on the missing person profile you will be notified in real time.

​View each individual missing persons case​ ​with ​​photos and full descriptions. Follow updates, view sightings on maps and report your own sightings using your camera and​ ​map​ ​​location.

​Please note

​If someone goes missing, contact anyone you think may know their whereabouts. If you're still concerned, contact your local police. You don't have to wait 24 hours before contacting the police.​

We are also developing a personal story Journal / Vault​ for the application​. This would allow you and family members to create a personal timeline by either posting videos, photographs or messages whether it be on specific occasions or when you feel the need to share something​ in a private, safe and secure environment​. Stay tuned to future updates.
