Ugly Mugs

About Ugly Mugs Android App

Safe IQ Ugly Mugs is a free safety scheme for workers in Ireland. It improves the safety of workers by bringing workers together to share information about potential dangers.

It is free and it is available to all workers in Ireland. Please note our geographic focus is Ireland (Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland). If you are working in another jurisdiction you should look for a safety scheme that covers your region.

We regret that, as of 2 November 2023, we have been compelled to remove the call screening features of this app that we had for the last decade. All the other existing features are retained. You can still view nearby alerts, check phone numbers, and make reports.
