Too sensitive

I placed my phone down 3 times today, didn’t drop it or throw it. Fall detector went off. How do I adjust the sensitivity? I have clicked the ‘fall from a ladder’ and it is still too sensitive

Fell

I just fell in my back yard and it actually knew I fell and asked if I was okay. It really works!

vee

Just purchased app. has no way to remove an emergency contact. Not edit. REMOVE!
App goes starts count down on its own. the ve fixed settings for personal use so not sure why it keeps counting down. So far not so good.

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback. We would like to help you get started. Please email support@fallsafetyapp.com. To remove an emergency contact, just swipe left on the list of emergency contacts and a delete option will appear. You may remove all but the last emergency contact. Since you are using FallSafety Pro, it appears you have enabled Worker Down detection. This safety protocol monitors for inactivity in case a person becomes unconscious. Please enable/disable Worker Down detection as needed. There is also a “table detect” option to help determine if your phone is left on a table so it won’t alert in that case.

I installed this app it does not work
I keeps telling me I have not turned it on.
I check and it is on
I intend to uninstall soon if I can’t figure it out.

Response from developer

Hello Paul B, Please be sure you are running the most recent version of iOS, many issues are resolved by keeping the operating system up to date. To see if you need to update iOS, tap on Settings on your iPhone, tap on General, tap on Software Update. Please email support@fallsafetyapp.com. We can setup a time to talk on the phone about the issue you are experiencing.

Turn it off!

I had a minor fall & the app worked well, but then it kept on going off about 5 times after I said I was ok each time ~ driving me crazy!!!

Response from developer

Gayle, We believe you may have the Worker Down feature enabled, which will alarm when the phone does not move. This is helpful for workers who may be injured or unconscious. Disable this feature and we think this will solve your issue. Let us know more at support@fallsafetyapp.com.

New 6.99/month app

Goes off way to frequently! Goes off while i phone or Apple Watch are still. Should I delete app? Already charged through iTunes. Help!

Response from developer

Thank you for the feedback. FallSafety Pro has a "Worker Down" mode that detects inactivity (e.g. someone that is not moving and possibly unconscious). Do you remember if you turned on "Worker Down" mode? We would be happy to email with you at support@fallsafetyapp.com or schedule a call. We can refund you or possibly our FallSafety Home solution would be a better fit if you don't need "Worker Down" mode.

Doesn’t work

Tried it because I have a medical condition that causes me to faint frequently. This app has not worked a single time I have fainted, and it drains the energy on my phone.

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback. FallSafety Pro is tuned to detect larger falls by default. You can change Fallsafety Pro to detect larger falls or use FallSafety Home. FallSafety Home is tuned to detect smaller falls by default. Note: We consider a fall from over 4' as a larger fall (as defined by OSHA as working at height).

The only thing better would be if it started automatically. Thanks

Potentially useful app flawed by fees and data sharing

Good idea, but seems to be (yet another app designed primarily to collect user information. I'm tired of people trying to get rich off of social services and health matters. I don't want another monthly fee. More willing to pay a small one-time amount. Also am not willing to accept another group mining my personal browsing data for their profit.

Does not work

A- has nothing to do with Apple Watch
B- I dropped my phone from 1.5 m and nothing

Response from developer

Thank you for the feedback. While FallSafety Pro does not work standalone on Apple Watch, FallSafety Pro does support Apple Watch as a remote control for FallSafety Pro running on an iPhone. Important: The iPhone must be carried on your body for fall detection and man down detection (inactivity) to work. We hope to improve the Apple Watch support in the future. FallSafety Pro detects larger falls and impacts for people who work at height and are working alone (i.e. lone workers). With fall detection and man down detection, FallSafety Pro has proved valuable for people working on roofs, ladders, scaffolding, etc. while filtering out smaller events like hopping out of a truck. Although FallSafety Pro detects many events, a simple example of what it can detect is falling / jumping off of the 3rd rung of a ladder. FallSafety Pro is not more sensitive to falls and impacts in order to minimize false alarms.

Worthless

As far as I can figure, this app is worthless, unless you upgrade. I couldn't put contact info in. Correct me, if I'm wrong

Response from developer

Thank you for the feedback. With FallSafety Pro, the app download is free and includes email notifications in the event of a fall or man down alarm. In order to get the benefits of the FallSafety Service, you must subscribe for a monthly or annual fee. Some of the benefits of the FallSafety Service are text and voice notifications to emergency contacts. Please note that there is a free trial (no credit card required) for you to try the FallSafety Service.

Fall Safety App gave my parents peace of mind!

I'm 26 years old and I have a condition that makes me a fall risk. I live alone in a different city two hours away from my family where I go to school. When I was told I was a risk, my family and I were worried I wouldn't be able to live alone for a while and would have to leave school. Once we found this app and tested it, my parents went home and I went back to my normal life. I would highly recommend it!

Does what it says

This truly is a fall detection app. I love how it is so intuitive and easy to setup. I got it going within a couple minutes. I was able to test a fall and send my wife an email with my location. It works just as how I envisioned. Now if only we can configure the sensitivity of the detection, this would be the best app for my application.

Fall-alert front-runners

I downloaded this app for my grandfather falling out of bed, and it doesn't work for this purpose YET, but after receiving great customer support, I am excited to see where this app goes in the future. If you are a professional working at heights I can say with confidence that this is the app for you.

Peace of Mind

My husband, who works on roofs everyday, most often alone, uses this app. Knowing that if he falls, I as well as his boss, will be notified, feels almost like he is always working with someone even when he isn't. This app doesn't eliminate the risk of falling, but does reduce the amount I worry about him while he is at work.
