I had to use this app and saved one of my relative's life in Austria. Great app and super useful. Thanks God this app existed and helped:in less than 10 minutes rescue was on spot and reanimated the person. Thank you
Brunei is missing from the list of countries.
Thanks juesas
I was charged the international rate for the demo mode text it seems so just to let people know as it dosn,t tell you that.Looks like a very good app and idea though.
Easy and seems efficient
It would be convenient to have an explanation about the two different keystore the app is using to keep cards. It ask you to choose between two totally unknown and you have to pick one... Probably some inheritance from the app being built on IOS as main platform but does not apply to android. Could maybe this feature being implemented into the app itself ? Not talking about user friendliness of the app, awful. Clears fields, default birth date is today! Default country is not guessed, phone number as well!
doesn't work with pass2u (opens a broken link in Google play): problem is apparently for pass2u app. works fine with passwallet.
WIll not let me add my phone number. Will let me add an incorrect UK one though. I am sure the swiss authorities would take a very dim view of this, Really do not see the point of this. Just dial 112 in an emergency the phone network can locate your position anyway. I am trying to add my Swiss number in Switzerland. and Yes the mobile network in Switzerland knows your exact loaction without this app. Cannot speak for other countries.
A good idea which will save lives. You have my respect for that. But seriously, that UI is just terrible and full of annoying alert dialogs. Makes me doubt that it actually would work in an emergency.
Not compatible with my Samsung S6. But it is, with the Samsung S5 and S3, this makes no sense.
hope I never have to test it till the bitter end, the app is buggy for now, but with so much brainless apps on the markets it's reassuring to see that someone still uses his head to come up with good concepts to help improve people lives with technology! kudos! (give feedback, help improve it, stop whining...)
Great app. But i think there is a country named "Bangladesh" in the world. Will give 5 star after adding this.
Working fine so far, including a test call - hope I'll never have to use it though! However in case I will it'll be much easier and quicker than trying to remember the correct emergency number, especially in a foreign country!
. Easy to use ...all countries
Nice evolution of my144 (finally) on Android. A lock screen as we had in my144 and more a "no need to unlock" widget should be great. Good continuation. ..
You would be a fool not to download this app.
As my phone is using English I cannot put my Swiss number in to register it and so cannot even use the app. It won't let me change from United Kingdom in the country menu. Please amend this so I can use the app.
Useless, didn't connect and after 3 tries I gave up and dialled 144 direct and was connected straight away. Basically it doesn't work! What use is it?
