About this app

Help Me S.O.S allows you to ask for help from family and friends immediately with just one click and send them the exact location you are on.
After pressing the button, app will automatically send an SMS message informing the sender(the previously selected trusted contacts) of the danger. In addition, the selected contacts receive the geographical location of you in order to provide the assistance as soon as possible.

Considering the stress that a person experiences when he receives this type of SMS, use the application responsibly and exclusively when you really need help.

Since app send SMS, you'll be charged as regular SMS costs (for each message)

How to use:
- Open app settings
- Set trusted contacts
- Set emergency numbers for your country (this will be used later to fast call them by simply click on icon)
- Tap on a big button will ask you for a needed permissions
- Tap again to test the button.

This actions should be done on first app launch

Use this app just when you really need it.

Ratings and reviews

I think this a great app for my friend who works knocking doors. What I would love to see is a 1 tap button you can put on app screen so that it's only a 1 tap process instead of 3 (activating GPS, opening the app and then tapping the button). Also it would be good if the GPS auto enabled on tap or at least asked for permission instead of just saying "no GPS or network available". Every second counts in some situations. Excellent effort though and I'll change this to a 5* if these changes come.

There's not much to review about the app, it's pretty straightforward about what it does which is good because in terms of emergency you need simple and intuitive app.

Great app, very useful for emergencies. Thanks for all your hard work
