“...Rush’s show regarding an SOS app that was used by Steve Jobs. Can someone tell me the name?”

The app was one created by Jay Elliot, who had worked with Steve Jobs. Elliot wrote a book, ‘The Steve Jobs Way: iLeadership for a New Generation’. Rush mentioned that he read about it in Elliot’s book. Rush has one now. I believe it is this...

Nuvel’s vSOS Now saves Lives On Android

The app works on two levels. First, owners can add their own personal medical information to the app – disabilities and allergies are some examples, and this info will help emergency personnel treat you once they arrive. Also, emergency contact information can be included so first-responders can immediately contact your family or your doctor in case something bad happens to you.

The second purpose of the app is 24/7 access to emergency services. For a subscription fee of $12.99 per month, vSOS users will be able to immediately notify local authorities if there’s an emergency. All you have to do is press the home screen icon for more than 3 seconds, and a distress signal is sent to GEOS, a professional services company, which will then contact local emergency services if they can’t contact the user.

That’s not all - GEOS has its own Search and Rescue services. If its available in the area, expect them to be on their way as soon as you notify them. The app even sends your GPS location so as to assist their EMS teams in finding you.
