Calling 4 Help is an application that allows the user to send Emergency type of text message and/or email (needs internet connection) through a 1-Touch system.
It is advantageous in various emergency situations because it allows users to send urgent messages with his location details to their preferred contact(s) to initiate and ask for help.
The 1-Touch feature: Open App. Press Need Help Button. (Emergency message “ I need help immediately; Emergency Situation” is sent to all contacts along with his/her location details).
Each time the user is ready to send a message, they have the option of editing their contact list so it is optimised to that situation’s need.
The content of the message includes: actual message, sender’s location (dependent on internet connection), sender’s contact information (based on the initial form completed by user)
In order to use the app, users accept the terms and conditions for the app. Then users fill out a form giving their Number, Name, Current Location and E-Mail. This information is included in messages sent without the use of Internet. Users then add contacts to this app through their phones contact list.
Note: The messages can be sent to contacts around the world; dependent only on the user’s phone SMS plan.
