Pleasant interface, with a functional layout

As many would expect from such a utility, this app is mainly focusing on practicality and ease of use. Nonetheless, the visuals are not left aside, so the looks of the application are quite nice, as well and very well suited to its general purpose.

The commands and functions, as well as the contained information are all easy to reach and read, with the navigation among the various sections of the app being seamless and without any visible flaws.

Add some personal information and make it visible

Right off the bat the utility will prompt you to input your details, including name, date of birth, known allergies and others.

This info is available inside the application, but you also have the possibility to have it shown onto the lock screen, so as to allow anyone to read and use them to help you.

From the "Lock screen ID" area you will be able to choose which data to put on the lock screen and you also have the possibility to select and use a different background image.

Learn about emergency procedures and enjoy some extra tools

With Emergency Kit you can read about the first aid procedures and see how some of them have to be carried out. Also, there is a section that teaches you how to build a survival kit and another one that features some useful travel info.

A great thing about this utility is that is comes with a few extremely useful tools that are ready to be used from the corresponding area. More precisely, you have at your disposal a personal localization tracker, a LED flashlight (that does not function on all handsets), visual and sound SOS Morse code signals, as well as a vault where you can add and keep personal notes.
