Silent Alarm – the number one free personal safety app for android, which in the event of an emergency, could help save your life with a single touch.

If you were in an emergency but could not contact the police, who would you contact? Silent Alarm will contact five of your contacts for you, with one touch. When in emergency mode, Silent Alarm retrieves your location from GPS, Wi-Fi and cell towers, and then sends SMS messages to your emergency contacts with your location.

After the initial message has been sent, it sends update SMS messages with your updated location. This can be customized to send updates at different intervals.

When your contacts receive your messages, they can come to assist you or send local law enforcement to your location.
There are three ways to trigger emergency mode. The first and most convenient is the home screen widgets which require only one touch to send your emergency messages. The second is by calling your local emergency service phone number which can be done without unlocking your phone completely. The third way is to go into Silent Alarm, and press the large toggle button once.

When you want to switch off emergency mode, go into the app and press the large toggle button once. You will be required to enter your PIN number to access the app and switch off emergency mode. This is to ensure emergency mode is not deactivated by someone else.
