Alerty’s mobile telecare service is an app that alerts colleagues you have selected by making a video call or a voice call. The app also sends a map that describes your location. If you have chosen to be connected to the emergency services, your call will be forwarded to the emergency services.

When video calling, the camera will only be filming during the period that the alarm is active and your colleagues will be able to see and hear you directly through the app.

Note that Alerty is silent, and no sounds will occur when the alarm is activated. Only a discreet vibration that informs you that the alarm is activated.

The alarm and its information is sent to preselected colleagues/alarm recipients that will see your location on a map. The microphone and camera also capture sound and image from the alarm situation. You can also send text messages via a text chat.

It depends on the activity. When an alarm is activated both camera to film and GPS to show location is in use. This drains the battery substantially. Other functions like motion alarms will affect the battery consumtion by aprox 1 % because the app need to keep the sensors active in the background. When Alerty is only active in the background the battery consumes minimal.

In those cases when the phone can’t send the alarm by internet, it will send it by text message instead.

It will work in the same way as in Sweden, make sure that your SIM card works in the country that you will be located.

GPS is only in use when an alarm is active. Note that the symbol in the staus view (arrow) doesn’t indicate that the GPS is activated, it indicates that the location service is activated.

Beacons (iBeacon / Eddystone) works in a similar way as access points. These communicates through bluetooth are powered by battery and easy to install. Beacons provide enhanced functionality for indoor positioning. View locations on different floors or when the user has arrived or left the site.
