The 'Emergency +' app, developed by Australia's emergency services and government partners, is a valuable tool that allows users to easily call Triple Zero (000) in case of an emergency and provides the ability to share their exact location with emergency responders. In addition to Triple Zero, the app includes contact information for other important services such as the SES and Police Assistance Line, helping to prevent non-emergency calls from overwhelming these agencies. With features like GPS tracking and what3words integration, the app enables users to provide accurate location information to emergency services even in areas without internet connection or in remote locations.

When using the 'Emergency +' app, it's important to remain calm, be concise, and stay on the line when contacting Triple Zero (000). This helpful app is designed for situations where someone is seriously injured, requires immediate medical assistance, or if there is a threat to life or property. If you answer 'Yes' to any of these scenarios, simply press the dial button and place a free call to Triple Zero (000) for assistance.

One of the great features of the app is its use of what3words, which divides the world into 3m squares and assigns each square a unique three-word identifier. This feature allows users to quickly communicate their location to emergency responders. It is particularly useful in areas with no cell service or when data is unavailable. However, it is important to note that if there is no cell service, you may not be able to contact emergency services using your phone.
