In case of an emergency such as an attack, the app sends the user\u2019s location and personal details to the police.<\/p>\n<p>The app also allows users to confirm their safety to chosen contacts and seek assistance with a simple shake of the device, sharing live location data.<\/p>\n<p>Additional functions include activating an alarm to draw attention in critical situations. If the alarm remains active for 30 seconds, the app sends an automatic notification to selected contacts.<\/p>\n<p>SafeAthens is also the first app in Greece designed specifically for the hearing-impaired, offering an accessible safety tool for all citizens.<\/p>\n<p>Athens Mayor Haris Doukas highlighted that the app provides \u201ca comprehensive digital shield\u201d to ensure the safety of residents, regardless of their needs.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><!-- .entry-content --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script>\n        var NXFBPixelFunc = function () {\n            document.removeEventListener(\"scroll\", NXFBPixelFunc);\n            setTimeout(function () {\n                !function (f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n                    if (f.fbq) return;\n                    n = f.fbq = function () {\n                        n.callMethod ?\n                            n.callMethod.apply(n, arguments) : n.queue.push(arguments)\n                    };\n                    if (!f._fbq) f._fbq = n;\n                    n.push = n;\n                    n.loaded = !0;\n                    n.version = '2.0';\n                    n.queue = [];\n                    t = b.createElement(e);\n                    t.async = !0;\n                    t.src = v;\n                    s = b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n                    s.parentNode.insertBefore(t, s)\n                }(window, document, 'script',\n                    'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n                fbq('init', '109138906120213');\n                fbq('track', 'PageView');\n            }, 0)\n        };\n        document.addEventListener(\"scroll\", NXFBPixelFunc);\n    <\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ekathimerini.com\/news\/1255281\/athens-launches-safety-app\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[InTime News] The Municipality of Athens has introduced the SafeAthens app to boost residents\u2019 security.
