The guides

If strikes come

On the street and in shutdowns

First aid and daily life

How to send them

Send the pictures first: they pass through Telegram, WhatsApp and Bluetooth easily, and each one carries the three most important things to do. Then the PDFs, which work with no internet once they are on the phone. The address of this section is iranuncensored.com/fa/ready/; nothing on it asks a reader for anything, and nothing a reader taps is sent anywhere.

Pictures travel when PDFs do not. Send them by Telegram, WhatsApp or Bluetooth.

  • Your family plan, starting today
  • Go-bag and home supplies
  • Where to shelter during a strike
  • After an explosion nearby
  • Leaving the city: when and how
  • Smoke, chemicals and nuclear sites

  • Your phone and accounts
  • When the internet is cut
  • Arrest: you and your family
  • Filming safely
  • True news, false rumours
  • First aid that saves lives
  • Fire, gas and electricity at home
  • Water, food and hygiene in outages
  • Calm minds, children and older people
  • Neighbours and your building, together

Your safety with this page

  • What this page keeps stays in this browser: ticks, drill answers and the family card. Nothing is sent to any server, and by default it is gone when the visit ends.
  • The PDFs and pictures carry this site’s name and address, so whoever gets one can find the rest. If the phone could be searched, keep them in a hidden or locked folder, and fill the family card with a nickname.
  • Quick exit: one tap clears everything in this section and opens an ordinary page. On a computer, Esc twice does the same.
  • Private (incognito) mode keeps nothing, but it cannot save an offline copy either. Choose one: private, or saved.
  • An offline copy means the pages and PDFs stay in the browser. Anyone who opens this phone and this address can see them.
