APPrehender: New iPhone & Android App Designed to Save Lives
Abduction of a Michigan mom inspires two app developers from California to build a mobile phone app aimed at saving lives and capturing dangerous criminals.
La Quinta, United States – November 30, 2016 /PressCable/ —
The disappearance of Jessica Heeringa in Michigan back in 2013 made headlines across the United States and the globe. The abduction of the Michigan mom, and other similar stories, raised the need for everyone to always be on alert for potential danger. The story of Jessica inspired the brains of a couple of concerned app developers in California to develop the mobile application “APPrehender”. APPrehender is designed to take photos of suspected armed persons and send the photos to a list of contacts chosen by the user of the app.
Largely regarded as the smartest mobile app, APPrehender was released in November of 2016 and is now made available on the two most popular App stores – Google Playstore and Apple App Store. Once the app is downloaded and subsequently installed on compatible devices, users are required to arm the app, which allows APPrehender to control the smart phone’s camera and take photos of people around. The photo is subsequently sent instantly to a list of contacts (family and friends) provided by the app user, with the onus of calling relevant law enforcement agencies falling on the persons on the contact list.
The primary aim of designing the app is to make sure that users are safe and secure, and criminals are put behind bars for their evil deeds. It gets even better with the app as it does not only send photos taken to persons on the provided contact list, but it also transmits the exact moving GPS location of the user to contact persons every two to three minutes.
The app has three color signals – Green, Yellow, and Red. The Green option activates the phone camera, snapping images around and instantly sending them and current GPS location to recipients. The Yellow option allows the user to send out exact GPS location secretly without the knowledge of the perpetrator, while the Red option is to disarm or cancel the app, returning it to “ARM” screen.
The app has gone through several tests and updates after the developer started work on it back in 2013, almost immediately after the Michigan incident. The powerful tool helps to identify potential harmful persons and bring them to justice in a record time, as it eliminates the stress and time wastage associated with police sketches. Users also get a notification that the message has been sent.
The app is available for download for a one-time fee of just $3.99 on both App stores. APPrehender instructions come in virtually all international languages including Chinese, English, Dutch, Italian, Portuguese, Spanish, Indonesian, Japanese, and Bengali.
