## Description

HandHelp™ is a European‑patented, one‑touch emergency SOS app and connectable panic button that sends instant, worldwide alerts — even without calls or shared language. Install the app or pair the Uney mobile emergency button to silently notify your private network and, with the Pro version, directly alert regional control centers (police, fire brigade, rescue). The system automatically transmits precise GPS/GSM/WLAN location, time, the 5‑W details (who/where/when/what/how much), plus an encrypted front‑camera photo and 24 seconds of audio to preserve evidence.

Your encrypted personal emergency passport (blood type, allergies, medications, conditions, organ donor status, etc.) is available to first responders in seconds with Pro activation. HandHelp combines chat, (voice) SMS, email, fax, video telephony and international emergency numbers across 212 countries and 216 embassies in one app. The Pro plan is a monthly option (7‑day free trial) to enable direct control‑center alerts.
