In simple terms, it's a phone book you can access during an emergency or urgent situation where access to your cell phone is limited or non-existent. It could be you lost your phone. Misplaced it. Pet ate it! Until you are able to get a replacement, it's a way to keep in contact with those most important in your life. Most importantly, you don't have to memorize the numbers.
Depending on your plan, you set extensions which correspond to the numbers (e.g. people) you want access to during an emergency. When the time comes, you log into the website or use the app--both of which required the use of someone else's device. You type in your cell phone number and personal pin. Next, you hit call and listen to the prompt. Each number corresponds to a person. Select the number and it will call that person. When the person receives your call, it will appears as if the call is coming from your cell phone.
While this service could be a life saver in your time of need, we don't belive in taking advantage of people during a time of crisis. For $3 per month, you get 30 minutes of emergency calling. After that, it's 5 cents per minute. In addition, the first 2 months are free! It's like insurance. You may not use it everyday, month, or year--but when you need it, you'll be happy you have your emergency phone book to access. It's the most economical insurance you'll ever buy!
