Sailendra babu, DGP all emergency services are connected in this app. But couldn’t see those nos. Whether these are working in background or still to be installed. It always requests to give access to camera, prob there could be a bug. Madurai directory is mentioned, but it is not getting drilled down. I have selected “Shake alert” option. I just shaked Immediately it goes to control room and got a call from them. But even after deselecting the option, shake alert wirks and again got a call and this could be nuisance to control. Please rectify. ### 3/5 — This app is using my location behind my back ! *2019-12-22* This app is using my location behind my back , my phone , let me know tat without using this app, kavalam sos was locating my location , which is extremely wrong , i trust u and tats why I accepted and switched on the location , but rn i feel unsafe !
