- How the APP Works?
While in an emergency situation, anyone in distress is able to make a call from the 112 India App, to seek local emergency service.

The APP also initiates a call to ‘112’.

App also comes with many new features like requesting volunteer assistance, and tracking your trip on request, to ensure a safe journey.

Alerts of nearby victims are pushed as messages, followed by an audible and visual alert on their phones.
To get these alerts, the individual has to enable volunteer availability as “Online”.
