SOS Locator – emergency call, SMS and location
Your phone is equipped with a special SOS Locator function, which allows you to
determine the location of the phone after pressing the SOS Emergency Call
button (e) and send it to recipients in an emergency SMS as a link to the map - so
if the recipient uses a regular phone with an Internet browser, "Click" on this link
and it will display a map showing the location of the phone.
The phone can also automatically call a preset number.
If you press the key (e) by mistake, you can always send the SMS automatically
and end the call by pressing the Cancel key on the screen.
The position is determined on the basis of the built-in satellite GPS receiver,
further orientation in the operator's network, or identification of the surrounding
WiFi networks. The most accurate position information is usually provided by a
GPS satellite receiver, but it only works outdoors when the phone has a view of
9
the sky. The location using WiFi and the operator's network is used inside the
buildings. The accuracy depends on the density of the network in a given position
and the degree of WiFi mapping.
This service is provided without any guarantee, at the user's own risk and the
accuracy of the results and availability of the service is not guaranteed in any
way by the telephone supplier, operator or provider of map materials and the
service can be terminated at any time without notice.
SOS function settings
For the SOS Locator service to function properly, it is necessary that the Internet
connection is activated on the phone, either via the mobile network or via WiFi,
optimally both.

menu button (f), then select BIG Launcher ALIGATOR settings, select the SOS
item in the Functions section and activate the following items by checking them:

SMS message (if you want to use the location sending service, you need to

be sent correctly !!!)
Add GPS position (allows you to add to the SMS the position determined by
the focus from GPS, the operator's network or using the surrounding WiFi
networks)
Send GPS SMS (not necessary, but allows you to send another SMS if the
phone manages to find out a more accurate location in a short time than in
the SMS sent after pressing the button)
Call (allows you to automatically call preset numbers after pressing the SOS
button)
Dialed number (telephone number to be called automatically)
