how to
Welcome to Esoes!
STEP 1:
To get started with using the app, go to USER SETTINGS and fill in your profile. Create a 4-digit PIN number to use for the emergency service action, powered by Noonlight. Please store your PIN safely as it cannot be recovered currently, if your PIN is lost, re-install the app and set a new one.
STEP 2:
Head over to CONTACTS, tap “Create a Contact/Group” and use the pink + button to add a contact.
You can create a group by tapping on the dropdown and selecting “Create New Group"
STEP 3:
To configure actions for one, two and three clicks of the device, go to the ACTIONS page.
Here’s what each action does:
SMS:
Sends a customized text message to your contacts/groups. Go to the MESSAGES page to customize the text message
Call:
Calls your contacts/groups without you needing to talk to them. When your contacts pick up, they will hear an automated voice message.
Go to the MESSAGES page to customize the voice message
Location:
Sends your current location to your contacts/groups. Must have location permission turned on and set to "Always Allow"
Sound:
Plays alarm from phone even when phone is set to silent/Do Not Disturb mode
Emergency Services:
Establishes communication with Noonlight, an emergency service provider.
You will receive a text message from an operator to initiate contact. Your location will be updated every 10 seconds.
To cancel the update, go to USER SETTINGS, tap “Cancel Alarm” enter your 4-digit PIN number correctly. Entering your 4-digit PIN incorrectly will make the app look like it’s not sending your location, but it is.
STEP 4
To enable these, tap on an action you want to do for each button click and you can either add contacts to it or enable/disable it.
Make sure you follow the prompts to allow permissions.
STEP 5
Once you’re ready to head out for the night, make sure you leave the app open in the background!
You can switch between apps and lock your phone, but do not exit out of the app while you are out.
