911 App calls for help when you use ‘safeword’

911 app

"Ur-safe" launched the app on I-o-s and android systems. An air force veteran and two medical professionals created the technology. They hope it will help save lives in an assault situation.

Users can call out their safe word -- even if their phone is across the room.

The device will instantly record the incident, send the person's name to police and store a streamed video on a designated person's smartphone.
