Primary features of the app:

- With our panic button (similar to a house emergency call), which works even when the cell phone is locked without tapping a text message, they alert someone via text message, without any Internet, if they need help.

- Supports Flic Button to trigger a emergency call (https://bit.ly/2lUqg3s)

- Supports the V.ALRT emergency call button worn as a pendant or bracelet. The SMS emergency call can thus be triggered directly via the button. (Bluetooth 4 required)

- Alarm monitor: When receiving an emergency SMS from the app or via V.ALRT, a S.A.R. Card with the position of the person seeking help.

- Geosearch via SMS and thus also without mobile data network possible.

- Sending and receiving encrypted SMS for communication with confidential data.
