## What is SOS Autoroute?

SOS Autoroute: your on-board emergency call point!

In the event of a breakdown, accident or events/objects to report, you won't need to leave your car any more to walk to the nearest emergency roadside telephone.

SOS Autoroute is a free app that connects you quickly to the nearest security station to report an emergency or an unusual event.

All calls are answered manually by a human operator who exchanges with you on the phone, determining your position and your situation on the motorway.

To optimise the intervention of the emergency services, SOS Autoroute finds your position using geolocation and transmits information about your vehicle that has been registered previously (up to 3 vehicles can be registered).

The application works on APRR, AREA, SANEF, SAPN, ATMB, SFTRF, ADELAC, A’LIENOR, CEVM, ALIAE and ATLANDES. If you are not on one of these networks, you’ll be redirected to the emergency number 112. The app will soon be updated, making it work on other motorways!

SOS Autoroute works in 5 languages: French, English, Italian, Spanish and German and there is also a video explaining how it works in sign language. This application has the Proxima Mobile label (free general-interest service recognised by the state).

You can also share your comments and suggestions on voyage.aprr.fr under Help & Contact.

### 3/5 — How to continue for UK numbers

*2026-06-16, version 6.0.1*

For UK, use the drop-down menu (click on the number), choose 44, then put in your number (without the first zero) without spaces. Then tap the top name box and the keyboard should disappear and the ‘continue’ button should be available. 

On the pages afterwards, the ‘done’ button should appear on the keyboard (if it doesn’t, again, tap another box when you’re done writing and the keyboard should disappear again, allowing you to access buttons in the app).

### 4/5 — Carplay

*2026-05-31*

Se serait bien de mettre sur CarPlay…

### 5/5 — Mis à jour

*2026-03-21*

Impossible d’installer la nouvelle version …
Pourquoi ?.

### 4/5 — Bizarre

*2025-06-29*

J’ai voulu utiliser l’application car un incident est survenu devant nous. (Perte d’une roue de caravane voie de gauche).
Alors que j’utilisais Waze, l’application SOS Autoroute m’indiquait une absence de géolocalisation. En insistant plusieurs fois l’application me proposait enfin de contacter le 112. Numéro dont je ne suis pas fan, beaucoup trop d’attente par rapport au 18.
La géolocalisation pour l’application est « lorsque l’application est active ». Je l’ai modifiée à « toujours », je verrais si la prochaine fois, j’ai une meilleure réactivité !

### 1/5 — Useless

*2024-12-29, version 6.0.0*

My daughter has a French phone but uses an American iTunes account and thus it is not available for her to download, and yet she is about to embark on a French road trip. Royally unhelpful.

### 5/5 — Très bien

*2024-12-08*

Nous sommes tombés en panne sur l’autoroute, noud avons appelé le dépanneur et il est arrivé en moins de 30 min. Il a été très gentil et nous a bien expliqué pour l’assurance et le garagiste. Vraiment utile quand on a besoin.

### 1/5 — Unable to register!!!!

*2024-11-19, version 6.0.0*

Thought this app would be useful travelling in France. Spent 30 mins trying to register, Wi-Fi on, Wi-Fi off, just data, filled in all fields manually but no joy. It’s only your name and phone number. Hope to god the actual emergency services are better than the app!!!!!!!

### 3/5 — Informations pas suffisantes

*2024-10-02*

J’ai installé l’appli pour ma voiture mais manque d’infos pour mettre dans le profil ma moto

### 1/5 — Still not working for UK numbers

*2024-09-12, version 6.0.0*

There is a dropdown for +44 but it won’t Continue.

### 5/5 — Très pratique

*2024-08-23*

J’ai eut l’occasion de m’en servir le 15 août 2024 très efficace les gendarmes étaient présents dans les 10mn pour assurer notre sécurité et le dépannage c fait sans soucis dans les 30mn 
Très pratique, vous vous mettez en sécurité avec gilet jaune 
Je recommande fortement.
