How does it work?
You start a group... Can be family, like minded people, your county, whatever. You set your radius, in other words the max distance you'd travel to help. Then you send out alerts if something goes sideways. The app gives you specific scenarios (pulled over by police, cop blocking, broken down being BULLIED for fucks sake), the ability to live stream video (while your phone pretends it's off). I know a bit more about Cell 411 as I've had it longer and the PeaceKeeper app was a bit buggy, which is I'm assuming why it's down for retooling. I have yet to really use it (Cell 411), and the one time I "tested" it by sending out a general alert about the DOT being in a church parking lot in my home town to generate revenue I got massive feedback about people coming to help me. I fucking panicked because I said right in the alert that it was an FYI and a test more than anything else, but I started getting all these responses. "so and so is 25 miles away and on their way to help!" and the like. Just grab it and check it out for yourself. You can always uninstall it if you don't like it.
