Emergency Button Setup

Record, transcribe, and alert β€” all with one tap (Premium)

1

Add an Emergency Contact

Go to the Emergency page and add at least one contact (name, phone number, relationship). Mark one as Primary β€” that's who gets the text when you hit the button.

Max 5 contacts
2

Customize Your Alert Message

The default message is "I am being stopped by police. This is a safety alert." You can edit this to include your name, location, attorney's number, or any specific instructions you want your contact to receive.

3

Use the Record + Text Button

One tap does everything simultaneously: starts audio recording, begins live speech-to-text transcription, and opens your SMS app pre-filled with your emergency message and contact's number. No confirmation dialog.

Tap again to stop recording
4

Use the Call Button

The Call button is separate and independent β€” one tap calls your primary emergency contact directly. Use this if you need to speak to your lawyer, a family member, or a bail bondsman immediately.

5

Save Your Recording + Transcript

When you stop recording, a download link appears for the audio file. The live transcript can also be saved as a text file with timestamps. Both are evidence β€” store them immediately.

πŸ“‹ Recording Consent Laws

Federal law allows recording police in the performance of their official duties in public spaces. Some states (CA, IL, FL, WA, MA, PA) require all-party consent for private conversations β€” but courts have consistently held that police performing public duties have no expectation of privacy. The app shows a consent notice for your state when you open the Emergency page. It's a reminder, not a blocker β€” recording starts immediately when you tap.

Police Encounter Tips

What to do (and not do) in the moment

🀚

Stay Calm. Don't Run.

Physically resisting or fleeing β€” even from an unlawful stop β€” creates additional legal exposure and risk. Assert your rights verbally and calmly. Challenge the stop in court, not on the street.

🀐

Invoke Your Right to Silence

Say clearly: "I am invoking my right to remain silent." After that, stay quiet. The 5th Amendment protects you from self-incrimination. Anything you say can and will be used against you.

πŸ”

Don't Consent to Searches

Say: "I do not consent to a search." An officer may search anyway if they have probable cause or a warrant β€” but your refusal to consent is documented and legally significant. Never consent.

βš–οΈ

Ask If You're Free to Go

Ask: "Am I being detained, or am I free to go?" If you're not being detained, you can walk away. If you are detained, ask "On what charge?" and immediately request an attorney.

πŸ“Ή

Record Everything You Can

You have the right to record police in public. Keep your phone visible, state loudly that you are recording, and don't interfere with the officer's duties. Recordings are evidence. Use the Emergency page.

πŸ‘¨β€βš–οΈ

Request an Attorney Immediately

If arrested, say: "I want a lawyer." Interrogation must stop. Don't answer questions without your attorney present β€” even if police suggest it will help. It won't.

πŸ“

Document After the Encounter

Write down everything immediately after: officer's name, badge number, patrol car number, what was said, witness names and contact info. Memory fades fast. Notes and recordings are your evidence.

πŸ“ž

Know Who to Call

Add your attorney, family member, or bail bondsman to the Emergency page before you ever need them. One tap calls. One tap texts. Setup takes 60 seconds β€” do it now, not during an encounter.
