Description
BASIC FUNCTIONALITY • Alarming in case of emergency (via phone call and SMS with a link to Google Maps) - No Internet required, i.e. no need to purchase data packages for alerting (neither at home nor abroad). - Location of the mobile phone even without ➀ GPS (less accurate) • Speed dial and alarming from the lock screen • Alerting of incoming alarm SMS, even in silent mode • Eases finding the mobile phone in close proximity, by making it ring through an SMS command, even in silent mode • Facilitate the location of the mobile phone in case of theft by reporting its current position: - in response to a SMS command - when the SIM card is changed ➁ • AutoSOS alerts when alarm SMS is received from burglar alarm systems, even if the mobile phone is muted
➀ For this purpose AutoSOS must also be installed on the alarm receiver side. Please note: The alarm emitter must have "Location" enabled under Android. This is the only way for apps to get access to "location sources" (GPS, cell phone masts, and WLAN). Cell phone masts and WLAN are used by AutoSOS for location if GPS reception is missing. The "Android location" is mandatory, not only for AutoSOS but for all apps that offer position finding. (See: Location / GPS And Battery Consumption With Android)
➁ only works with Android versions < 10
RAISING ALARMS
The alarm can be raised: • by clicking on the SOS button • by pulling the earphone plug (Hint: Cut the cord of an old earphone and make a loop or knot) • by the absence of significant motion • by holding or clicking one of the volume buttons several times • by pressing the power button several times • by pressing a Flic button ➂ (to be bought separately from www.flic.io) • by using Bluetooth remote controls • when the battery is low of charge
➂ Both new Flic2 and older Flic buttons are supported.

Comments on AutoSOS: Automatic SOS Alarms for Android
★★★★★
This App is Amazing! It has really great features, like being able to send an Emergency SMS and Call with 3 clicks of the 'Lock Screen Button'. No need to be in the app. It can tell your loved ones where you are without the location being on your phone. It works perfectly, no ads, very simple design and interface. Not battery draining. It's perfect and has brought me a lot of peace of mind, knowing that in an emergency, my loved ones will know, and be able to get to me.
★★★★★
Great app. Makes me feel a lot safer. I like the alarm by holding a volume button. At the beginning, I had a problem that the pre-alarm pop-up was not displayed. The support was able to help me. I had forgotten to grant some permissions.
★★☆☆☆
Gets in the way of the lock screen. Keeps crashing and having to be restarted. Using Android 10 on Nokia 720, when I close the lock screen app to unlock the phone, after a few times the lock screen app stops being visible until I restart the app.
★★☆☆☆
Everything Was fine...but I was unable to send messages 😭
★★☆☆☆
So you're telling me im in trouble and I need help I have to watch an ad you're having a laugh 🤬
