When dialing 911 from your mobile phone you may not know your location. Utilizing a GPS enabled smartphone, coupled with 3rd party mapping and location software, this simple and elegant application provides the user with a quick and continuous access to their location data, including GPS coordinates and address when available. It also provides a single button dial for 911, allowing the user to rapidly find their location and provide this data to a 911 operator in an emergency.

To use, simply open the app, allow it to find your location, and press the Call 911 button. Your phone will then dial 911 and the app will provide you with an address that is visible during your call.

While your landline phone number is matched with a database that tells the 911 Operator the address from which you are calling, this is not true of your mobile device. You may be ANYWHERE while using your smartphone, and the 911 Operator currently receives no data as to your location. This application provides you with accurate location data, including your current address as well as your latitude and longitude (incase you are in the backcountry).

Please note that you are ultimately responsible for confirming your location, as you are relying on the accuracy of the GPS data provided as well as 3rd party mapping software and the accuracy of your device.
