YOU DO NOT NEED an iPhone Application that can notify law enforcement if you are in trouble. Your iPhone can do that right out of the box, in a few seconds. What YOU DO NEED is an Application that can help keep you out of trouble in the first place! My Security Bubble will "light up" your iPhone if any member makes a report concerning any event within about a one mile radius of your current location - WORLDWIDE. More than just a valuable tool for you and your neighbors during the 64% of your life that you spend at home, My Security Bubble draws a "Security Bubble" around you at all times. Its to your advantage to know about and avoid certain ongoing situations near you. Gunfire at the other end of the shopping mall, gunfire in the principals office while youre teaching class in the west wing, a gas leak on the top floor of the building youre in, a suspicious person hanging around the ATM at First and Main, etc. The list is endless. Other situations that are less time-critical but none-the-less important: Lost dog, found cat, a minor automobile accident closing a road that you normally use, a community association meeting announcement/response, etc. This list is endless, also.
Here’s how My Security Bubble (actually, YOUR Security Bubble) works: For less than the cost of a cup of gourmet coffee, you purchase the Application. You activate the Application by completing the sign-up process. You make sure that you “Allow” notifications and location information on the settings page of your iPhone. You then start the Application on your iPhone and leave it running in the background anytime your iPhone is turned on. You do not need to do anything to keep your account active. My Security Bubble will notify you within seconds if any member in your immediate area makes a report. If you have knowledge of any situation that you feel would be helpful to the people around you, simply “two-touch” your iPhone screen and type your message (“three-touch” for PANIC). We recommend that you position your My Security Bubble icon on the home screen of your iPhone for immediate accessibility.
If you want to use My Security Bubble as a communications tool for your local community association, simply use the “Invite” function built into the My Security Bubble App. Or, you could put a note in your neighborhood newsletter to invite your neighbors to go to the App Store and purchase the App. It’s as simple as that! You might also want to “Invite” friends and family members who live outside of your local area but are in the contact list of your iPhone. That way, they also will be able to benefit from immediate notification if there is a reported situation wherever they are. All persons on earth (subject to availability and each country’s laws) over the age of 13 years are welcome to join My Security Bubble.
Note: Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
