About this app

World In Sign Europe GmbH (WIS™ EU) now offers with this free "WIS Emergency" an accessible emergency call app system for deaf, hard of hearing and speech impaired people who also want to report an emergency in sign language.

In case the app is not handy in case of emergency, we have a mobile emergency button for this purpose, which is connected to our app and further described via our website - Click here: https://worldinsign.de/wis-barrierefreier-notruf/


The special feature of this emergency call app is that in case of an emergency the affected user (w/m/d) can send an emergency call to our WIS Sign Language Interpreter - Center as well as to the police or fire department / rescue services in German-speaking countries (D, A, CH, LI) and abroad (worldwide) to the responsible embassies / consulates.

In the current test phase, our sign language interpreting center is available for the first time Monday - Friday from 8am - 3pm German time, as we have not yet received government funding for a 24/7 service.


FUNCTIONS:

- Emergency call incl. 5 W-questions (Who, Where, When, How many people, What happened) and photo/sound documentation (evidence) as well as emergency passport.

- Emergency call transmission within seconds via email, SMS, fax, chat, video telephony as well as an emergency call receipt for the user

- Precise localization via GPS, GSM radio networks, WLAN, beacons

- Exact emergency profile for police, fire department / rescue services
