July 2018 WARNING:
Android OS has a possible bug. When you shut down your phone and do a fresh power on, the phone will need a few minutes to get its GPS location. Any App that makes use of GPS is affected by this bug. The only App that is able to get your GPS location quickly after a cold reboot is the Google Maps App. If you do perform a cold reboot, you will need a few minutes for the phone to set up its GPS location for Apps that use the phone's GPS data. If you did not perform a cold reboot, then the App should not have trouble getting GPS data from the phone's built-in GPS system.

Ratings and reviews

The location is not accurate. If I use this app to get help I'm screwed. This app will send all first responders to my neighbor's and put my safety at risk. It's useless. It's not my phone causing the GPS problem. The maps app on my has no problem pin pointing the correct location. This app uses the same maps as the real estate websites. They have the same results. Either way this app is useless in a crisis. I will call 911 the old fashioned way to make sure they find me before it's too late.

This app looked very promising and, after verifying my county uses text 911, I installed it. The setup is straightforward and easy to use. When I got to adding my contacts, I was only able to add one person. You can add more with the pro version (oh great!). When I checked the price on the pro version, it was only .99! Awesome! I'll be buying the pro version NOW. Just found out the pro version is on the Play Pass Family Plan! You guys rock! 🤘

Hope it works well with my data on a real emergency !! Very sleek and nice app. Thanks ! Also - I wasn't able to setup an emergency contact - my first one - I google but all links now say ICE has been removed ? Thanks for the fast response! That fixed it...thanks ! Made it 5 star. UPDATE - this app made a fake SOS call yesterday to emergency contact and all hell broke loose. It also would not let me change my #. Downgraded and uninstalling. UPDATE - Their support was very responsive - will try again - upping it to 4star just for the responsiveness.
