About this app

mySOS turns your phone into a personal safety device — so help is always one tap away.

Whether you're walking to your car, travelling alone, or facing a real emergency, mySOS lets you raise the alarm instantly and share your live location with the people who matter.

ONE-TAP SOS
Trigger an emergency in a second. Choose the help you need — Medical, Police, Road, Fire, Sea or Other — and mySOS immediately alerts your emergency contacts with your real-time GPS location and a live tracking link.

JOURNEY TRACKING
Heading out? Start a Journey — Walk, Run, Hike, Cycle or Drive — and set how long you'll be. If you don't check in safely in time, mySOS automatically raises an emergency and notifies your contacts with your location. Ideal for solo travel, night walks, road trips and outdoor adventures.

FIND HELP NEAR ME
Quickly locate the nearest hospital, police station, pharmacy, doctor, dentist and more — sorted by distance, wherever you are.

EASY SETUP
Add your emergency contacts in seconds — type them in or import them straight from your phone. Choose your preferred responders for each type of emergency.

HOW RESPONSE WORKS
With the standard app, your nominated emergency contacts are alerted and can respond to you directly. For round-the-clock professional backup, upgrade to MySOS Premium.

MYSOS PREMIUM — PEACE OF MIND, POWERED BY AURA
For a small monthly subscription, a professional 24/7 call centre calls you when you activate an emergency and dispatches accredited medical and security response — instead of relying only on your contacts. Subscribe or cancel anytime, right inside the app.
(Some users are covered by a dedicated MySOS button provided by their organisation, with its own control room.)

YOUR PRIVACY
Your location is only shared when you activate an emergency or an active journey — you're always in control. You can delete your account and personal data at any time from within the app.

PHYSICAL PANIC BUTTON
You can also opt in to purchase a physical panic button that can be linked to your account from our store. This can be very helpful when a phone gets stolen or you're hijacked. Small panic button that can be carried in your pocket, belt or around your neck.

Stay safe — wherever life takes you.
