A new iPhone application released on Friday by the YWCA is intended to be used by women who feel they are in danger or in a difficult situation. The “Safety Siren” app sends a call and email that to a friend or family member when the user clicks a button or shakes their iPhone, depending on the settings she has chosen. It also includes contact information for YWCA branches, emergency hotlines, and access to a library of women’s health information, among other resources. The app is available free from the Apple App store.
You can read more about the Safety Siren app in the CBC News or the Toronto Star.
