What's New in PanicButton SOS | Emergency

• An alarm that expired with nobody closing it is no longer treated as «safe»: it shows as «No response». Your group and contacts get reminders at growing intervals, and in the detail they see the last known location, medical info and your contacts' phone numbers. • If a reminder reaches you and you already know, tap «Stop reminding me» and we won't remind you about that alarm again (the closing notice still reaches you). • If you show up later, tap «Tell them I'm okay»: your group gets an «I'm okay» and the timeline records it. • When you close your alarm it gets classified: «I'm okay now» or «False alarm». And in Alerts you can mark each one as real or false alarm. • Your first SOS offers to send it as a drill, and it goes out on its own after 5 seconds.
