112 Where ARE U

AREU

About this app

Where Are U is the app developed for calling the European Emergency Number 112 (where available), automatically sending your location information and all the other information you included in the app.
The European Emergency Number 112 was created to provide all European citizens with a single number for their emergencies: Ambulance, Firefighters, Police can be alerted by the same PSAP (Public Safety Answering Point) and the service automatically locates you, for a rapid and accurate response.

Where Are U allows you to:
- send your position to the 112 PSAP management software, allowing an accurate location, for a rapid response, when every second is important;
- store your personal data, including ICE (in case of emergency) numbers, that can be called for you by the 112 PSAP operator if necessary;
- enhanced interface for unimpaired sight citizens;
- "silent call" function to allow a call to 112 and warn of an emergency, even in situations when the caller is unable to speak;
- selection of the most appropriate type of emergency when calling 112;
- switching to the proper emergency number when travelling abroad (e.g. in the U.S.A. the app will dial 911, instead of 112);
- guide and app tutorial available from the menu;
- chatthin with the 112 PSAP, very useful function for unimpaired hearing citizens and also crucial in every situation when speaking is not possibile.

To use the Where Are U services, you need to follow a free of charge registration process.

Ratings and reviews

Very useful and intelligent application. I really hope it can have a fast and wide diffusion all over Italy territory and Europe. I think the sensors activation (GPS, cell networks, wi-fi networks) for quick and precise localization could be improved, to make easier or even automatic the process of starting the app and having active all the useful sensors at once. A great issue during the account creation is selecting the birthday, cause you have to scroll all months back from present day till the previous century. Please fix this issue asap with the manual/numerical selection of the year of birth. Anyway for the purpose of the app, really a great job! Keep going!
