If you are hurt or lost, you only have to click on the emergency button in order to send an alert to the rescue team.
If you are incapacitated and you cannot send an emergency signal, the rescue teams from the areas equipped with this system can find you.
If you have the application turned on, although you are lost, your battery runs out or you go outside the service area of Alpify, the rescue team can use the information stored in the system to know where you were going in the last few hours and work out where you are.
