Cab App Can Save Lives
It’s about time apps can out that could literally save lives. Now there’s an app that can help people out in rough situations.
The new iOS and Android apps, soft-launched earlier this week, feature an In Case of Emergency (ICE) button which messages your location and a distress signal to one or two pre-nominated friends. They will also be notified via an emergency buzzer if they have the Meru app installed. Once you press the button, which sits prominently in the banner, you have ten seconds to cancel the request.
Authorities around the country are applauding the new app and have high hopes for it.
