Preferences. To receive push notifications of reports of crimes or suspicious activities near to you, you need to opt in to this by checking the button and also selecting your home location by selecting your current location or from the map (touch on the map to specify a location). You must specify a location to receive these notifications and it is important to note that the app will send notifications to you based on proximity to this location (rather than your phone's actual location). You need to also select the range from your home location you want to receive notifications from.
Press "Save and Activate". If the panic button screen does not appear within a few seconds, check your internet connection and that you've completed all the mandatory fields correctly (scroll up).
THE PANIC BUTTON
There are two panic buttons, one for crime-related emergencies and one for medical emergencies. Both work the same way.
After activating, the following things will happen:
you will be asked to confirm that you want to send an SMS to your emergency contacts with a link to your location.
Your phone will call the PT Alarms emergency number. The app will now start to pulse your location every 15 seconds. We will be able to see location in real-time.To cancel the alert, press the red button again. Update your profile and preferences under the settings menu at any time.
This happens for bot crime and medical alerts, depending on which panic button is pressed. The Controller will be aware of the difference between medical and crime alerts..
