Description

  • at least the default number of a contact should be used for a SOS call! maybe it is worth to think about, if the button should be tied to a number and not just to a contact... BTW: although you can also enter additional numbers in the BaldPhones own contact editor, i don't see a possibility to set a default. - have i overlooked something or is this a bug?

  • an interesting feature i saw somewhere is a countdown timer after hitting the initial SOS button. but this needs some additional configuration settings like the duration, what should be done... who should be called, more than one or all 3 "emergency numbers" in a different staggered arrangement by time... or even sending predefined SMS etc.

  • also an interesting feature i saw, was to start this process resp. show the SOS screen (and start an eventually configured timer) by just shaking the device for absolute emergencies. but i'm sure this also needs additional configuration options (and extremely high defaults if active at all) for duration and intensity of shaking to not start it by accident!
