Attack Alarm is a personal safety app designed to help you react quickly when you feel unsafe. At its core is a fast one-tap alarm that can play a loud siren to attract attention nearby, but the app also gives you extra tools for situations where you need a quieter or more discreet response. Choose between Loud Mode for an immediate alarm, or Silent Mode to access safety tools without sounding a siren. You can also customise how the alert behaves with different alarm tones, screen pulse, torch flash, brightness boost, and optional spoken help phrases. Attack Alarm also helps you prepare for the next step. Choose a trusted contact from your contacts, quickly open Messages with a pre-filled SOS message, call your trusted contact, or call emergency services for your region. If location access is available, the app can include your current Apple Maps location link in the message. For extra reassurance, Attack Alarm can help you find nearby places such as police stations, hospitals and pharmacies, or open a fake call screen to help you leave an uncomfortable situation more naturally. The app also includes an on-device incident timeline, so you can save notes, keep a record of events, and export the timeline afterwards if needed.

Farfisa IP Way is the new way to design and make video intercom installations that exploits TCP/IP data net: IP based products communicate anyway without compatibility limits, but the typical functions are easily activated, even remotely through specific devices or apparatus already daily used as PC, smart phones or tablets. Farfisa IP Way offer is new but already it has evolved. Simple and complete, the system meets the growing demand: you can add to AgorΓ IP door station -aesthetically and functionally identical to a traditional push-button panel where you can generate a SIP video call to internal devices: VoIP equipment, smart phones, tablets or PCs. You can also join to the door station a specific ZHeroIP monitor. Therefore it results a complete system where all the advantages of digital IP technology are available and also where the typical easiness of a traditional video intercom system (look, ergonomic use, easiness of the monitor) is guaranteed high level, we are talking about the graphic interface, soft touch keys, hand-free, ESP audio system). If you choose a system without a traditional internal station, you can have the maximum simplicity of installation that means just the mounting of door station, thanks to the applications for smart phones and tablet or a wide range of VoiP land telephones compliant that can receive the call. The applications and areas of use can vary greatly: multi-user residential estates, industrial premises or professional offices. Farfisa IP Way allows for the simple but secure management of calls and access control from remote locations. A modern and unthinkable solution until today! AGORΓIP and ZHeroIP basically allow to manage two kinds of calls: Peer-to-Peer this call mode associates each user to only one IP address. In an IP system the door station calls a device connected to the local network which responds and manages access. This application typically happens mainly in case of limited communication management within the building. SIP PBX the products are also compatible with VoiP systems based on SIP switchboards. With this mode, which provides greater flexibility. It is the switchboard itself that handles the communication with the desired extension. Amongst the switchboards suitable for connection you will find the most popular units such as 3CX and Asterisk.
