SURVKIT – Offline Emergency
Everything offline
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Try everything for seven days. SOS and first aid stay free forever. After that a one-time purchase, no subscription. All offline, no account, no cloud.
Everything you need. Even when nothing else works.
SURVKIT is an emergency and crisis preparedness app for Europe that runs entirely offline. No account, no cloud, no ads. All content ships with the app and stays available without a network.
FIRST AID
Step-by-step instructions for life-saving measures, including a CPR metronome at the correct rate. Based on public guidelines from the WHO, the German Red Cross and the German Federal Office of Civil Protection (BBK).
KNOWLEDGE OFFLINE
Survival knowledge, European plants and wildlife, knots with step-by-step guides, radio frequencies, emergency scenarios. Plus Wikipedia articles you download in advance — individually or a whole category at once.
MAPS AND ORIENTATION
Offline maps for entire regions, compass, altimeter, star map, waypoints and track recording. All without a data connection.
TOOLS
Flashlight, magnifier, morse signalling, decibel meter, spirit level, stopwatch, calculator, barcode scanner with allergen filter and much more.
PREPAREDNESS
Supply calculator following official BBK recommendations, inventory with expiry dates, checklists, family emergency plan, children's emergency ID card, encrypted document vault.
FOR FAMILIES
Emergency ABC for children, quizzes and first aid in child-friendly language. The whole app is also available in plain language.
FREE AND ONE-TIME PURCHASE
The SOS area stays free permanently: emergency call 112, first aid including the quiz, emergency numbers, emergency profile, map and compass, flashlight, siren, share position and short-range radio.
Knowledge, Tools, Supplies and Profile are free to try for seven days. After that, a single purchase unlocks them for good. No subscription, no automatic charge, no ads.
PRIVACY
Your data stays on your device. There are no user accounts and no tracking. Weather and barcode lookup are the only features that go online at all — and only when you use them.
Note: The first aid content does not replace a course or medical treatment. In an emergency, always call the emergency number first.
Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
- The app now speaks French: all content and the entire interface. Which language appears is decided by your iPhone's settings.
- The Bluetooth messenger now reaches Android devices too. Two phones find each other directly over Bluetooth - no Wi-Fi, no internet, no account.
- The emergency profile now leads to the card for your wallet: print it or share it with one tap. Plus a guide to Apple's Medical ID - emergency services can read that on a locked iPhone.
- "Share position" remembers the interval you set, keeps recording with the screen locked, and lets you pass on your last position or the whole history.
