We rarely think about what would happen if some accident happens when you travel outside of your country or region. I wish I would have this app this summer when I got into car accident when travelling abroad. First thing which comes to travelers mind is to call 911, but what is the number for emergency line in other countries? By checking car rental documents you probably can find 24/7 car rental service assistance line, but in my case apparently it was not 24/7.

This app does a simple thing. It checks your location and finds the emergency number which works there and whole procedure is just a single button press.

So get !Emergency! app as well as your piece of mind and travel safe.

if the app works couldn't you just go to online to a site like to find the number you wanted. . .and save the .99.....or the wiki ....however it does list countries offline in case you needed it so i suppose that's useful

112 is usually standard in most countries except the US, or 999 or 112 in the uk. Even if it's only alongside the standard number for that country. So why pay for an app? especially when your mobile phone connects to a foreign network and says welcome to xx emergency: 112
