Not all the time.
Not every time.
At the right time.
Even those of us with the most extreme of lifestyles sometimes want some assistance. That’s all we are trying to do here, enable people to lend a hand, when they can.
How does it work?
Meet Sarah, Jane and Dave’s kid.
Sarah’s a pretty active and independent young lady, which is great as Jane and Dave have quite demanding careers.
But even with that in mind, all three sometimes find there are times they wish Sarah could communicate more quickly and easily when she does need a hand.
Using Community Assist, Sarah can simply ask for assistance from Jane and David.
She can let them know how soon and what, and if things are in any way dicey, she can send them an urgent assistance request so Jane and David can get to her location more quickly.
Things get more powerful when we add more members to Sarah’s community.
All three are lucky to have other members of their local community, be it family, friends or neighbours who Jane and David both trust to help out.
Suddenly Sarah, Jane and David feel more confident that Sarah can always get the assistance she needs when she needs it.
Safety, and privacy, First.
Safe.
Community leaders are in control by default. Community leaders create the community and community leaders must verify community members. This can be adjusted in settings.
Your walled garden.
Only community leaders and the person who may need assistance can see community member contact details and vice versa. Other members of the community can’t see your details
It’s your data.
All data is securely stored in iCloud. The developers have no access to this data. There is no tracking of your behaviour or selling your personal data in this app, thank you very much.
Urgent locations.
Community members can receive location data with urgent updates along with what3words locations for use if contacting emergency services is ever required
No strangers.
Straight forward sign up means that community members will have been near the person who may need assistance to join a community. Community leaders can invite members via link
Logged.
To help organise a community around requirements, and for peace of mind, community leaders can view a log of how many requests are issued, when, and who responds to them.
