We are pleased to announce that we have just released a new version of our
Android alerting app AutoSOS in Google's Play Store.
Basic Functionality
- Alarming in case of emergency (via phone call and SMS with a link to Google Maps)
- No Internet required, i.e. no need to purchase data packages for alerting (neither at home nor abroad).
- Locating the alarming mobile phone with and without GPS (less accurate)
- Speed dial and alarming from lock screen
- Alerting of incoming alarm SMS, even in silent mode
- Eases finding the mobile phone in close proximity, by making it ring through an SMS command, even in silent mode
- Facilitate the location of the mobile phone in case of theft by reporting its current position:
- in response to a SMS command
- when the SIM card is changed
Alarm triggering
Alarm can be raised:
- by clicking on the SOS button
- by pulling the earphone plug (Hint: Cut the cord of an old earphone and make a loop or knot.)
- by absence of significant motion
- by pressing the power button several times
- by pressing a Flic button (to be bought separately from www.flic.io)
- when the battery is low of charge
