SOS on Windows Pc

Please feel free to contact us for bugs, suggestions and questions.

You can completely exit the application using the exit button (X) of the notification to save battery when at a safe place.

How does it work?
When the application runs for the first time, the Menu List page will be displayed, which also can be accessed from the main screen menu, where you should add numbers of trusted persons in the Preferences:
Trusted person: Enter up to 5 telephone numbers of trusted persons, who will be informed by SMS, without the leading "0". There is no need for the application to be installed on the recipient phone, but it has to be a smartphone. In order for the messages to be sent, at least one number has to be entered.
Password: 4-digit password consisting of numbers. Password is just to prevent unwanted people to quickly terminate the application. If you forget your password, you can easily change it in the Preferences menu.
Pistol/Siren sound: Here you can choose between the Pistol reload sound and Police siren mentioned below.

Our primary goal is to prevent crime before it is committed, by discouraging attackers.

In the Menu you can also find the Application Help and Share it.

There are 7 active icons on the application main screen:
1. Pistol/Siren: When tapped, a gun reload/siren sound will play.
The goal is to make the attacker think that you have a pistol/there is police car close and discourage him/her.
We do not recomment the usage of the gun reload sound, as it could cause a bigger danger.
2. Police lights: When tapped, the following will happen consecutively to discourage the attacker:
- The screen will flash red/blue. Simultaneously a police radio sound will play.
Its purpose is to frighten the attacker in the darkness by making him/her to think there is a police car nearby.
(Screen brightness and speaker volume are maximized automatically)
3. Location: When tapped, a maps link of your location will be sent to the Trusted people by SMS.
4. SOS: When tapped, the following will happen consecutively to discourage the attacker:
- The screen will flash red/blue. Simultaneously a police radio sound will play.
Its purpose is to frighten the attacker in the darkness by making him/her to think there is a police car nearby.
(Screen brightness and speaker volume are maximized automatically)
- The camera starts and stands by. When a photo is taken, it will be uploaded to our server and sent to the Trusted people with the current location by SMS as a downloadable link and maps link. You can reach the main screen by clicking back, or keep taking photos, which will be send.
- The camera flash will rapidly blink to temporarily blind the attacker and give you time to escape.
5. Phone: When pressed, your phone ring tone will play until released. This way you can fake a call and make the attacker believe that friends are nearby.
6. Camera: When tapped the camera starts and stands by. When a photo is taken, it will be uploaded to our server and sent to the Trusted people with the current location by SMS as a downloadable link and maps location link. You can reach the main screen by clicking back, or keep taking photos.
7: Flashlight: Flashlight will be active while pressed, and deactivates when released.
