React Mobile Connects Social Media To Save People In Case Of Danger
Social media and location based apps can easily expose people's privacy. Thus in today's world, your safety is perhaps always at stake. React Mobile (iTunes/Google Play) is an app that helps you in times of distress by allowing you to instantly issue and SOS alert with your GPS coordinates to family, friends and 911 via SMS/text, email and Facebook through your smart phone device.
According to React Mobile's website, the app can be widely used by people of all fields. It helps you to locate students, employees, and loved ones from home, office, or while on the go when they are in danger.
"For universities, React Mobile, gives campus safety officers and administration an easy to use tool to send out mass alert notifications to students and faculty in the event of an emergency or disaster scenario. React Mobile is a safety tool that can turn student smartphones into emergency Blue Light Phones' enhancing campus safety.
"From families to large universities, React Mobile, is a powerful tool that is leveraging technology to improve safety. Unlike other safety tools (i.e. guns, pepper spray, rape whistles, knives, etc.), React Mobile, is a safety product that cannot be used against a victim."
