[Oh hey guys; Chris hadn't really planned on making this post, and it's going to be a quick one, but he'd had a thought that seemed important to mention.]

So uh, just thought I'd remind everyone that awhile back I made an app that lets you send out an SOS if you're in trouble. It's pretty easy to set up, but if anyone needs help I can probably walk you through it.

[And it's surely obvious why this announcement is being made at this time.]

That's uh, pretty much it, but yeah. Stay safe, everyone, okay?

Anyway this can open a backdoor for someone to get a location on someone without them using the app?

[The function sounds great. Being able to call for help and summon it to where you are is useful. But Matt is on edge right now.]

...yeah, I've never heard about any of that.

[Here's a sheepish-looking dwarf who's still learning the fine art of angling this device. Technology-minded, she is not.]

It's a kind of alert? How does it work?

Guess it wouldn't hurt...

Yo. A little help here?

Who does it send that message to?

And that can't be sent to anyone else, like those null? Just making sure.

It's better than nothing.

[She pauses, realizing how that might sound.]

Sorry, my manners are shit with lack of sleep. I'm grateful. A lot of work must've gone into this app thingie.

Is there a limit of how many people?

Good, that could be handy.

I just have a handful of people who would need to know if something happened.

Thank you for your kindness. (His family needs this app. Centuries ago. Millennia.)

I was worried about that, but my technological know-how ends right around getting speech-to-text working.

[Though see now he's confused.] I think that was before my time. What about voting in Confusion?

I'm Aren Brosca.

[She cracks a tired smile, then angles the phone -after some fumbling, to reveal the large, muscular dog sprawled out on the floor at her feet. He was lightly dozing, but perks up and sniffs at the phone.]

This is Barkspawn. He doesn't like the Null, either. So if people need to be protected, here's two more ready to knock some heads. [Barkspawn backs that up with an enthusiastic bark, wagging his tail.]

Just wanted to thank you for making this app. We have a setting for the Fire Brigade. And we already have the Guard version. I've set mine up with several lists, some official and some personal -- the Brigade, the Guard, the Clinic, my family, and a bunch of friends. And I've got one list that includes all three emergency services. I used that one when the city was burning down.

[ OOC: I'm pretty sure Curufin asked him for one for the Brigade a while back, so I'm assuming it was used during the recent fires! ]

I'm not entirely sure of how those things work but- thank you. Hopefully this will help saving someone.
