Stealth Safety: Trigger An Emergency Alert Right From Your Pocket

Masked men threatening you? How do you alert others of the danger without opening or looking at you phone? Or even giving SIRI a verbal command.

Use the Back Tap feature on your iPhone with a Short Cut. It’s free and simple to do. Here’s how:

Back Tap

Back Tap is an iPhone feature that lets you perform actions like taking a screenshot or running a Shortcut by double-tapping the back of your phone. It acts like a custom button for quick access without navigating menus. You set it up in Settings > Accessibility > Touch > Back Tap, where you assign different functions to the double-tap gestures.

Use the Shortcuts app to add ready-made or custom shortcuts to your devices. The ShortCut app lets you combine multiple steps across multiple apps to create powerful task automations.

Once you’ve downloaded the DANGER Short Cut on to your iPhone, remember to edit to include the names of the people you want to send the emergency alert.
