## What is iNeedHelp?

You go home alone in the Dark and then you see some Dark Guys on the other Side of the Road. After this you realize that they look at you and you get affraid...you know that Feeling?

This App could help you in such Situations.
Dont understand it wrong this is no Pepperspray or something else that can hurt somebody to get you out of a Bad Situation.
Maybe you could throw your iPhone...

But what this App could do for you is, it could give you time. So much better you play it that you have a Dog with you or an Electric Shocker, so much more time you will get in Bad Situations to find "real" Help.

This App can simulate a snarling and barking Dog, a Electric Shocker and if you need it press the Alarm Button and an alarm signal will fire so you can scream for Help and the alarm will support you.

The iPhone will not go into sleep mode since you have started this APP, so you can hold it in your pocket with the thumb over it.

This App is for free cause Help should cost nothing and this App could help you just more than nothing.

In the Dark, all Cats are gray!
Get your App!

*2010-06-20*

What the heck? What was the point of this app. It is suppose to help me right? But I don't see how alarms shocking and a dog barking helps me. So if someone sees this can you try telling me how to do this.
