myGuard - Personal Security app for iPhone and iPad
Developer: Michele Rauzino
First release : 10 Oct 2012
App size: 7.05 Mb
myGuard is a personal alarm system. If the user feels in danger, he only has to activate myGuard and it will notify all the authorized contacts.
Those who receive a myGuard alarm can immediately follow all the movements of the user who activated it, and, if needed, call the authorities.
It is possible to send an alarm to people who dont use myGuard. In this case SMS and Email are used and theyll contain only the initial GPS position.
Every myGuard user can choose the people that will be able to monitor the position.
myGuard also works in the background with the device in stand-by and it’s been designed to be activated with just two taps on the display.
For those being abroad, myGuard offers three pre-programmed buttons with the Police, Ambulance and Fire Dpt. phone numbers, depending on the Country they’re in. This database is integrated in myGuard, so this function doesn’t need an Internet connection to work.
PLEASE NOTE: Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life. Dont forget to stop the alarm as soon as possible.
