APP GIVES USERS A SAFETY HALO

摘要

Virtual Halo is a personal protection app for the iPhone and Apple Watch, aimed at increasing safety around the world. The app has three key features. SOS is designed as a personal panic button. When pressed in the iPhone app or on the Apple Watch, an emergency notification is sent by the Virtual Halo cloud to the user's emergency contacts, providing the nearest street address and a link to the user's location on their map. The Check In feature lets emergency contacts know the user is OK; optionally, the user can include a custom message and location.
