THE SOS TIMER FEATURE
Set SOS Timer for up-to 24 hours, it’s like telling someone, if I don’t return, come & help me.
The Timer starts in our safety cloud & if you’re unable to cancel the timer, because something happened to you, we automatically and instantly alert emergency contacts when the timer ends.
This feature is helpful if you’re worried an activity may result in you being unable to talk to Alexa to send an SOS. You can set the countdown timer by simply saying:
“Alexa Open My SOS Family and set the timer for 20 minutes”.
Alexa then synchronises the My SOS Family service (via the internet) so that if there is an incident, wifi stops working or even a power cut, our system will continue the count down remotely and trigger the SOS alert automatically to your contacts.
If you’re OK, you must cancel the timer by saying:
“Alexa to Open the My SOS Family Skill”
Otherwise SOS alerts will be sent to your emergency contacts.
Customers regularly tell us this feature gives them peace of mind and security in numerous situations.
A few examples you can set the timer prior to:
-
Having a shower;
-
Going to the bathroom;
-
Answering the door to a stranger;
-
Walking the dog;
-
Gardening;
-
Climbing a ladder;
-
Going down the cellar or basement;
-
and many more ..
Take a moment and consider a few situations this feature could be useful when you are alone, and how the timer feature could prove useful.
