Someone mentioned this app today the 'Hollie Guard' app ..
What it is, you sign up to it and can enter emergency contacts ( a parent, friend, someone trusted)...
In an emergency, if you shake your phone's handset, the app will automatically call / text/email your emergency contacts and will also tell them your exact location. You can download it in the app store, and if you do download it youll have to turn on location services. But I feel it's a really handy app for teens to have, women especially if you're out alone at night, walking alone in evenings/dark/secluded places, even for elders. You don't need to press anything or mess around on your phone if you're in danger, you just shake it and it's activated. It's great.
I'll be getting niece to download it asap. Better safe and prepared than not ..
take care
