Recently there were reports that a large number of people are going missing in Delhi. These include children, women and youth etc. Some of these people were traced a few days after they went missing, but no information could be found about many others. If someone goes missing, the first few hours can be very crucial. During this time, if someone is carrying a smartphone, it can do many things including sending alerts and recording movements. Today we are going to tell you how a smartphone can be useful to you in such a situation.
This feature can help
Emergency SOS available in the phone cannot avoid such a situation, but it can help. On pressing the side button several times in the iPhone, an alert is sent to emergency services and selected contacts. Similarly, this feature can be used in Android phones also through the power button. In many cases, the phone also shares live location with emergency contacts, making it easier to track someone.
live location sharing
The feature of live location sharing can be useful during emergency. Google Maps and Apple’s Find My app give users the option of real-time location sharing. If you are returning from somewhere at night or taking a cab alone, then share your location with your contacts. With this they will keep an eye on your movements.
battery saving mode
Battery saving mode in the phone reduces background activities and the phone can run longer. This makes tasks like taking calls, sending alerts and location sharing during emergency easier. Although none of these features guarantee safety, they can help you a bit in times of emergency.
