Call for help or give an "all clear" or send $$ Help Bridge is a free mobile app that connects people to their loved ones and also presents people opportunities to help in times of disaster. With just a few clicks, you can quickly send e-mails and texts and to groups that you define (some groups can include co-workers, family, or friends) and post an emergency message to your Facebook wall. You can also send an "all clear" message if you want those same groups to know you are OK.

Contacts All Wrong Installed on Samsung G3. Had to have a Microsoft I'd. Went through setup and the contacts names and contact info was completely wrong. Wrong numbers and email addresses for each Name in phone contact list. Looks like random associations. Uninstalled.

Awesome Potential, Lackluster implementation Please, please, please fix the bugs! As someone active in emergency response management, I was just about to email everyone I know about Help Bridge, eh but not yet. It is so close to being what the public needs for effective emergency communication. ***Update*** In version 2.0 the contacts are still being parsed incorrectly! Other apps use the Google Contacts API effectively, you should ditch what you have and re-implement it! Useless app until this is fixed!
