This app allows people who need assistance but do not want to involve the police to send alerts to family, friends and neighbourhood watch groups. It can also e used to live-stream videos and save files to a third-party server where authorities cannot remove them. As police brutality and racial profiling are increasingly exposed, apps like this offer citizens a self-organised network of help.
