The onboard BLE 5.2 technology allows you to contact your loved ones or the authorities at any given moment with the push of a button. Whenever you feel like you’re in actual danger, simply click the bracelet’s SOS Button 2 times, which triggers an emergency phone call from your smartphone, to a primary contact you setup on the company’s app. This action will also provide a specific location as to where you are, and will text this information to the authorities and whomever else you set up in the app. The CARRAT App also features a detailed report that can be shared with specialized institutions.
