Using the App:
In times of crisis, press the SOS button which will notify the QRFup Response Team. We will initiate a call to you by a licensed therapist who will provide confidential support. If you need a fellow Veteran to come to your location, that can happen too.

Veteran Network:
During your call with the therapist you will determine whether or not you’d like a fellow, nearby Veteran who is part of the QRFup Response Team to come to your location. If you do, the Response Team will be alerted by the therapist. Therefore, the App requires access to your accurate location.

Location Data:
The App requires access to your precise location data to direct a QRFup Response Team to your exact location for faster support. We collect this data only if you first provide permission for the App to access your location data when you choose to activate features.

Each time you open the app, we gather your precise location to quickly add to SOS alerts to enable the QRFup Response Team to support your needs. The App cannot guarantee the specific response or arrival time of responders, location data or location tracking will be accurate, you can also tell the operator of your location.

FEATURES:
SOS Countdown Timer:
Set a timer (5 minutes to 49 hours) to send alerts.
Great if you are concerned of a crisis but may be unable to reach your phone.
If you are unable to cancel the timer for any reason, alerts will be sent as if you pressed the SOS button.
