Make sure your loved ones can be quickly located with iRescue even when the cell towers are not available.

Some examples of situations where iRescue can help:

• Your spouse is lost in the woods on a hike.

• Aunt Mary’s neighborhood is hit by a tornado.

• Your twelve year old daughter is kidnapped, she has her cell phone in her backpack…

With iRescue on their phones the chance to locate them quickly could be increased.

• Your co-worker in a Hurricane can use iRescue ‘Snooze Mode’ to indicate they are safe, if the situation changes a message and locator beacon will be sent out.

• Your husband or wife is found by a search party employing iRescue on a drone.

• The cell towers in Aunt Mary’s area are out, but her iRescue beacon brings search and rescue to her location quickly.

• Your daughter’s cell phone is silenced to not draw attention to it while its location is relayed via iRescue.

iRescue turns any smartphone into a beacon for assistance or a search and rescue tool making anyone a first responder. YOU could save a life!

Features:

• Notification of your 'Safety Circle' when you are in need of assistance. - Your Safety Circle will be notified when your iRescue beacon is activated, they will receive your GPS location via text message. Your Safety Circle are the people you choose to trust to come to your assistance in the case of an emergency.

• Remote Activation - Your iRescue beacon can be remotely activated by someone in your Safety Circle if you are unable to do activate it. (iRescue beacons can only be activated Android users' phones. iOS and Windows platforms do not allow remote activation.)

• Amber Alert Mode - Your Safety circle can remotely activate your iRescue beacon but the speakers and vibrate functions are disabled. If you've been abducted your location will be relayed to your Safety Circle but your phone won't make any noise to draw the attention of the abductor.

• Store key medical information - Blood type, allergies, medical conditions or blood borne contagions. This information is not broadcast or distributed anywhere. Personal information is never sent to or by iRescue.

• Snooze Function - If you are in an ongoing dangerous situation, a hurricane for example, you 'snooze' iRescue. In 30 minutes iRescue will ask if you are okay, you can either deactivate iRescue or snooze it again. If you don't take action within 30 seconds, iRescue will activate your beacon and contact your Safety Circle.

• Hide and Seek Game - Practice using iRescue to locate someone hiding in your area. You're Safety Circle will not be notified so they won't worry unnecessarily.

• We've developed our own proprietary algorithm to convert raw fluctuating signal strength from a variety of sources to a user friendly and intuitive display leading to an effective search tool.

• For best results users should change the name of their Wi-Fi Hotspot to include "iRescue_" followed by their name or other identifying label. This will make it very obvious to searchers that your iRescue beacon has been activated and it is not confused with other Wi-Fi sources.

Future Features:

• iRescue is part of the government's Wireless Emergency Alert system (WEA). Future upgrades will include push notifications when an active disaster is in your area and if appropriate your iRescue beacon will enter Active Beacon mode. If Active Beacon mode is not disabled within 60 seconds messages will be sent to the Safety Circle and the beacon will activate.

• Receive alerts when there is an emergency situation in your area.
