This app provides the peace of mind and safety that everyone needs. Just install once and it will be in the Action Centre when you need it - just a one button press away. Amazing and will recommend this app to everyone I know.

Just received an SMS from my GF, while she's asleep right by my side. This is the second time this happened, something is broken and needs fixing.
