In today’s technological world, there seems to be an app for most everything. There are apps for information, entertainment and productivity, and now there is an app to ensure safety.
The LifeLine response app is “the most advanced mobile safety app on the market” according to www.llresponse.com.
Upon downloading the app, users create a profile with their names and contact information. This includes physical attributes such as height, weight and race. Next, users make arm and disarm codes to use in emergencies.
Another great feature of the app is the selection of personal lifelines. Every app user can have various lifelines, whether they are family members, friends, or other people they trust. In the event of an emergency, the lifelines will be informed that their loved one is in trouble.
Aside from lifelines, the alarm also will notify authorities within minutes. The LifeLine Response Verification Center is available 24/7 to intercept emergency situations and inform users’ local police centers.
The app works in two different modes: thumb mode and timer mode. Thumb mode can be used when walking alone at night or through a dark alley. Users hold their thumb on the screen while walking and if anything happens they release their thumb. LifeLine Response will be notified after a twenty-second countdown, which can be canceled by the personal code at any time.
According to llresponse.com, “Timer mode adds an extra layer of protection to potentially dangerous situations.”
Timer mode is a safety precaution for more long term events such as going for a run or carrying groceries inside. Each of the modes work in the same way, but can be used for different instances.
The LifeLine application is a great alternative to worrying about a potential attack or carrying around pepper spray. It is a more comforting, efficient and interconnected form of protection.
The company’s website proclaims, “With LifeLine response, you are always just a touch away from your family, friends, and the authorities. Empower yourself in any situation with LifeLine response.”
The LifeLine response is available for iPhone and Android users.
