Distress Signal

I tried making a call to the police or ambulance but it keeps repeatedly making the app just close. I also tried sending my location but the link given with the text was just a useless web page with no helpful information

The apps automatically shut down when I want to use Phone fuction

i want to give it 5 star, but i cant search my location even if takes time...why is that??

It doesn't work. I try logging in and it just crashes.

Didnt work

Thanks for this app

Very buggy, cannot be relied upon in an emergency.

Torch doesn't do anything at all on my phone (moto Defy+) yet other flashlight apps work fine. It should prompt you to turn GPS on (if its not on) Directions to the nearest hospital/police station might be a bit more handy than a map (maybe linked in to google Maps/ Directions?)

Looks good, will obviously only use in an emergency, scared to press any buttons incase it actually calls the emergency services without a prompt. PLEASE can you add a TEST MODE in the options so we can see how it runs without actually calling anyone. Also the app gets stuck on finding location, back-out key needs to be active all the time else the app locks up & has to be force closed out :(

I really like this app as it is a reassuring tool available to me should I get in trouble, and especially as I like to go backpacking. It would be both impossible and impractical for me to learn all the necessary words and phrases required to deliver my vital information to the appropriate services in an emergency. I also like to go mountaineering so it is potentially a life saver! Liked the layout: easy to use. The short first aid advice built in is also a nice touch saving me having to take a book!

I downloaded this before I went travelling with my girlfriend. It provides piece of mind while in a country where you don't speak the language. I had been worried about emergency services in other countries but thankfully this takes the worry away. Great app and have already suggested it to other people.

Good idea for an app but given the purpose this needs to be perfect on the first release otherwise you are putting people at risk. Tested on Samsung Galaxy S II running ICS 4.04 in the UK. Issues: 1. GPS does not automatically turn on at any point 2. If no GPS signal then app does not work - nearest hospital does not work. If I google maps search for hospital in the same situation I will get something. - send location hangs. - alert emergency service does nothing You should have a fall-back so that if GPS signal is bad or GPS is turned off you can still call emergency services. 3. Needs a "testing mode" or more detailed instructions so the user can familiarize himself with the app without worrying about accidentally contacting the emergency services 4. In the Settings where you store information on allergies / blood type should allow further information e.g. description that could contain other details (e.g. patient number, date of birth, condition: diabetic / pregnant / etc.) 5. I cannot find the area to configure an additional email / phone number that will be contacted if you are in distress.

FINALLY AN APP THAT SENDS YOUR LOCATION TO THE EMERGENCY SERVICES, NOT JUST FRIENDS!!! It sends pretty accurate location data to the emergency services! Obviously depends on how good your phone gps is. If no gps, then gives you the emergency number of the country you are in to call (for each service if different). Translates all the text seemingly well for each native country. Cant wait for USA and rest of europe to be ready! Additional personal info can be stored in the other field it seems under allergies if needed. Relies on google maps for nearest hospitals and police
