SMART24 - Keeping you safe

Smart24 is personal safety and communications app, helping to keep dispersed workforces and travelers safe and secure by connecting them with a monitoring team. When needed, you can continuously share your location in real time with your monitoring team, helping to speed up the process of coordinating an effective response during an emergency. Smart24 allows you to trigger emergency alerts, send one off location check ins, and communicate with your monitoring team using secure two-way messaging and push notifications. It includes a Shake for Emergency feature, allowing to quickly notify your monitoring team about an emergency, even when the phone is locked, by shaking your phone with a special gesture. Sometimes in response to a new threat or disruption, or if you have lost your phone, your monitoring team may need to quickly know where you are. So Smart24 features a Poll Location feature, where your monitoring team can obtain your location when the app is running in the background. You receive a notification when this happens and this feature is controlled by you. We know that sharing your location, even with trusted people like your monitoring team, can be a concern, so we have carefully designed Smart24 to respect privacy. "Continued use of location services while the app is running in the background can lead to battery drain. So by using two-way messaging you can coordinate with your monitoring team to use the continuous real-time location sharing only when needed."
