Rave Panic Button reduces the time before help reaches you in an emergency. For critical emergencies, activate one of the five Rave Panic Buttons to start dialing 9-1-1. When activated at a location configured for your organization, Rave Panic Button also notifies on-site individuals, getting you immediate assistance. For lower-severity issues not requiring a 9-1-1 call, you can use the Staff Assist feature to notify on-site individuals only. Using Staff Assist will not dial 9-1-1. When a Rave Panic Button 9-1-1 call is routed to a participating 9-1-1 center, the 9-1-1 call taker automatically receives real-time, critical incident information such as the emergency type, building floor plans, emergency response plans, and other critical details via Rave's patented Smart911 technology. Rave Panic Button is a product of Rave Mobile Safety, whose industry-leading public safety applications protect millions of people nationwide. Rave Panic Button is free, but works best when your school, business, or other organization subscribes to the service. Notes: • Some Rave Panic Button features require a data connection and access to your phone's location services. • Rave Panic Button works best when you enable Notifications and keep your phone connected to a Wi-Fi network. • You must be authorized by a participating organization to fully access Rave Panic Button’s features. The app automatically checks your authorization status during setup. • Always contact 9-1-1 in an emergency. Rave Panic Button makes it easy by dialing 9-1-1 for you, but you must click the "Call" button after activating Rave Panic Button in order to place the call.

No Apple Watch app?
3d ago

Teacher892
This is required for schools, and teachers and councilors often rely on Apple Watches. As a teacher moving around campus carrying supplies, my phone is easy to accidentally leave behind. I would feel so much better if this could integrate with a cellular Apple Watch, which I would always have strapped to my wrist. Other than that, it has always worked well in drills, with a great design. Hopefully I will never need it for anything else!

No “alarm” sound when activated

My phone does not alert me with a loud noise. I get a small “ding” on my watch and maybe a small noise on my phone. I’ve seen other have this problem too. Other people in my same office get a loud “alarm” noise when their’s goes off, but I don’t. I’ve messaged support and they “tried” to help me, but I sent screenshots of both my app settings and phone settings, then a separate message about how both times it was activated Friday at work it did not alarm (as per my email, but to confirm nothing was “fixed” on their end) and I have yet to get a reply still 2 days later. My app isn’t working an intended to notify me of an urgent situation and no one cares to help me fix it, I guess.

Hi, there is a known issue with iOS 26 that is preventing apps from delivering notifications. Please contact our support team to resolve the issue: rave.support@motorolasolutions.com

Can colleges use this too?

I want to know if universities and college campuses can use this device too. And I’m not understanding the whole institution thing, especially when I register .I just want to know if students can use this worldwide for all types schools and not just high schoolers in south Florida. - Anonymous Student

No audible alarms even with critical alerts enabled.

Despite having every possible iOS notification setting enabled—including Critical Alerts, Time Sensitive Notifications, sounds, and persistent banners—the Rave Panic Button app consistently fails to make a sound during drills or emergencies. I’ve confirmed volume settings, mute switch, Focus modes, and in-app settings, but the app still remains silent. For an application that’s supposed to be used in life-or-death situations, this is unacceptable. If alerts cannot reliably bypass iPhone’s silencing features, the app loses its core purpose. Until this issue is fixed, I cannot recommend relying on it for real emergency communication.

This doesn't sound right. I'm confident that our tech support can help you with your settings to ensure that your notifications are being delivered as expected. Please contact them at rave.support@motorolasolutions.com
