6 Reasons You Will Want the RapidSOS Haven App.

This is the time of year when you will find the RapidSOS Haven App has all the options you could want. Now that school has started or is starting soon it’s always good to be prepared.

One of biggest advantages of the Haven app from RapidSOS that I love is the check-in feature.

1. Check In

You can easily check in when you have arrived at your destination and request loved ones to check in too if you suspect they may need help or are in an unexpected place. Love, love this feature as I have always asked my parents or my kids to check in every time they are out and about. Then I get the ‘oh I forgot’. With this app, it will be really easy to do.

2. Real-Time Location or the Ability Not to Share

Be able to have real-time whereabouts of friends and family members and control when you share your location. I like this area also, and the fact that I can control my location and share it if I wish is pretty cool.

3. Send Help

Call 9-1-1 on behalf of a loved one, sending their GPS location and personal data to the dispatcher center closest to them so help can be dispatched if needed. Now this is something that would be difficult if you had to do it via your phone. This could very well save the life of a loved one!

4. Alert

Convey the most important data to 9-1-1 dispatchers and provide emergency contacts with key information about your emergency, keeping your family connected. This makes me feel so safe when I am not home, and safer knowing my parents have this ability on hand.

5. Text

Send text messages to 9-1-1 when you can’t speak or need to get help discreetly. Now I may watch too many Criminal Minds or SVU, but too many times I have seen the person under the bed trying to talk to a 9-1-1 operator. This is one more reason I love this app. I mean I am not afraid that something happening like on one of those shows above but it’s great to know I have this option available with the Haven app.

6. Send

Send 9-1-1 important information with one touch, including the type of emergency and GPS location, when data connection is available. Intelligent connectivity optimizes the connection, even if you have poor service or a depleting battery.

82% of violent crimes occur outside the home. If you don’t know where you are, time is spent determining your location, when it could be used to provide life-saving instructions. Provide your location to 9-1-1 dispatcher systems and get help up to 5+ minutes* faster.
