Imagine being caught in an emergency and you need to call 911 or one of your emergency contacts. Do you want to have to go to your phone book? Do you want to have to dial the numbers?
With 911 you can call the 911 operator with two simple clicks.
In addition the 911 application allows you to set up two additional emergency contacts from your phone book and becomes a rapid dialer in an emergency.
Put this app on the bottom of your iPhone navigation to have it always there in an emergency.
Pros and cons of 911 app for iPhone and iPad
911 app good for
Simple app that calls your contacts fast. Since you need two taps, you wont call accidentally. I made an emergency contact for my test to avoid dialing 911 itself.
Just downloaded this app, pressed "911" to make sure it dialed, saw that it did & immediately hung up! Without speaking to anyone an operator called back less than 15 seconds later, despite the fact it was 6am in the morning, & stated that she received a hang up. The app works & it could be your last lifeline to save your or someones elses life. Download it!!
I think this app is great! I have 911 and the non life threatening police dept numbers in this app. Great job and great idea for this app!
We need an app that determines your location and transmits it to 911 in case all you can do is call and not speak or have to weak of a signal to verbally communicate your location.
I found this app when I realized how complicated it would be for my 3-year-old to figure out how to call 911 on my iPhone if the need arose. This makes it so simple. Exactly what I was looking for.
The developer seems to stop updating this app long time ago, but it’s still the simplest app out there to let you call 911 with just 2 taps. And it has a better looking icon, which is important because I want to be able to make an emergency call as fast as I can, so the solution app will be on my first screen, where I can locate easily. This app is exactly what I need. Lost one star because its not compatible with iPhone 5 screen size.
Some bad moments
If you cant remember three numbers the phone is smarter then you.
This app asks you to supply to contacts from your contact list but it doesnt work.
Iphone 5 with latest OS. Cant update the entries. Had to trash and find an app that works.
