Save the app that could save your life – Emergency Plus. In an emergency, time and location accuracy are critical. By downloading the ‘Emergency +’ app, you’ll equip yourself with a powerful tool that will help you call Triple Zero (000) quickly, and allow you to accurately communicate your location to emergency call-takers. ‘Emergency +’ is a national app developed by Australia’s emergency services and their government industry partners, helping people to call the right number at the right time, anywhere in Australia. Emergency + also includes SES and Police Assistance Line numbers as options, so non-emergency calls are made to the most appropriate number. When calling Triple Zero (000), remember to stay focused, stay relevant and stay on the line. Before you call ask yourself: * Is someone seriously injured or in need of urgent medical help? * Is your life or property being threatened? * Have you just witnessed a serious accident or crime? If you answered ‘Yes’ to any of these questions, call Triple Zero (000). Triple Zero (000) calls are free. The app uses a mobile phone’s GPS functionality and what3words, so callers can provide emergency call-takers with their location information as determined by their smart phone. With what3words available within the Emergency+ app, Triple Zero (000) callers can confirm their exact location quickly and accurately. what3words has divided the world into 3m squares and given each one a unique three word identifier. Addressing using what3words works offline - ideal when you have no data coverage or are in a remote location.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Emergency Plus at 5.0 against MyAussie's 4.1. MyAussie's advantage is review sentiment (80% vs 49%) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 9 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Emergency Plus holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.1. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 2 and 8 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 49% of Emergency Plus's written reviews are positive against 80% of MyAussie's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Emergency Plus ships an update every 9 months, MyAussie every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 21, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
