Abstract: A personal tracking and notification system includes a personal communication device for a first user being tracked for inputting and transmitting personal safety tracking information and check-in information to a network server. The server provides a check-in notification to a personal communication device of a second user indicating whether or not the check-in information was received from the first user, whether or not check-in information was received from the first user before expiration of a check-in time period, such as at a scheduled time.
