Frequently Asked Questions

WHAT IS INACTIVITY?

The time interval is the time your phone can be inactive before the alert process is initiated. Depending on your phone usage, you can always change this.

WHAT HAPPENS IF I ACTIVATE PANIC BUTTON?

When you click the panic button, the AllsWell Alert app instantly sends GPS alerts to selected contacts via SMS and email. Your friends, family, partner, or anyone you’ve added as an emergency contact will know you need help.

HOW DOES INACTIVITY MONITORING WORK?

The inactivity monitoring feature uses a smartphone’s motion sensor to detect prolonged inactivity periods that may mean something is wrong with the user. Once you exceed the specified time, it automatically sends GPS alerts to selected contacts. The inactivity is tracked during daytime only, and you can configure the interval.

WHAT IS “TIME YOU'RE ACTIVE”?
