UCLA Mobile vs SaveMyFriend

The UCLA mobile app is a mobile portal that blends UCLA content and resource links while also featuring UCLA's dynamic app landscape collected into a sliding Apps dashboard for the ease of UCLA's broad and diverse community. This allows the UCLA community to present a collection of UCLA's important apps while also allowing individuals to personalize their own dashboard with additional UCLA apps that they want to include in their UCLA mobile app environment. The app features app to app launches so that users have quick access into all of UCLA's native apps, listed in the UCLA app catalog.

Would you know what to do if someone near you overdosed, stopped breathing, or experienced a life-threatening allergy? SaveMyFriend walks you through it: step by step, in real time, for free. Developed by emergency and addiction medicine physicians, this app puts life-saving guidance in your pocket. SaveMyFriend™ guides you through responding to the most common life-threatening emergencies where bystander intervention often means the difference between life and death: • Overdose (opioids, alcohol, benzodiazepines, and others) • Heart attack and cardiac arrest • Severe allergic reactions (anaphylaxis) • Altered mental status Every guided response in SaveMyFriend uses basic life support (BLS) techniques: foundational skills that anyone can learn and perform, no medical licensure needed. All interventions have been reviewed by emergency medicine and addiction medicine physicians. WHAT YOU CAN DO WITH SAVE MY FRIEND Be instantly guided with clear, step-by-step instructions during an emergency: • Call your country's emergency number directly from the app with one tap • Know your rights under Good Samaritan Law for any US State and Canada • Get instructed in how to administer Narcan® (naloxone) for overdose • Get instructed in how to use an EpiPen® for anaphylaxis • Perform rescue breathing with guided instructions • Place someone in the recovery position safely WORKS WITHOUT CELL SERVICE: SaveMyFriend works completely offline — no Wi-Fi or cellular connection needed. Whether you're at a music festival, a concert, a campsite, or anywhere with limited service, the app is fully functional. Even if you can't call in to emergency services yourself, you can still follow every step while someone else goes for help. WHY SAVEMYFRIEND EXISTS: Most people will witness a medical emergency in their lifetime. Most have never been taught how to respond. SaveMyFriend was built to close that gap. Every second counts, and you don't need to be a medic to help save a life. SaveMyFriend is and will always be free. No ads. No account required. No personal information collected. SaveMyFriend™ is developed and supported by DopaGE® - because no one else should lose a friend or loved one to an overdose.
