With the Horus app, you can the ability to use the time needed to mobilize the authorities. With Horus, they will be ready for serious cases because they will already have the predefined profiles of your loved one with pictures, and can respond within seconds. Even when you are on vacation in a country, and do not speak the local language, you can adjust the alarm to your location and ask local people for help in your area.

You have the option to choose between 3 different types of alarms. The Alarm Type 1 is broadcast in a radius of 20 km, which will be increased automatically to 40 km after 15 minutes, and a maximum of 60 km after 30 minutes. Alarm Type 1 will be triggered when abduction is highly likely. Alarm Type 2 will be broadcast in a radius of 2 km and will be automatically increased once after 30 minutes by an additional 5 km. Alarm Type 2 indicates a runaway condition, such as when you cannot find your child at a big event or a person in need of care has runaway. Alarm Type 3 will be broadcast in a radius of 5 m and ultimately serves to test the functionality of the app.

Horus is a serious, high-quality system that provides security. Provision of this service requires support and updates. Since we do not associated with any foundation, we do not share or sell information to third parties, and we have avoided annoying ads in the app, but do need to cover these costs in some manner.

In ensure maximum security, the profiles created will only be stored on your smartphone. Your profiles' data will first be transferred to the server when the alarm has been triggered and then made public.

Registration by SMS is necessary as a quick secure measure to prevent abuse. If we were to avoid this, the Horus users would defend themselves anonymously and might trigger false alarms. If an alarm is triggered, all communications related to the triggered alarm must be saved for possible court cases. Abusing Horus is not recommended, because such abuse could lead to legal actions and we would rather follow the motto that a false alarm is better than no alarm.
