Call an alert

Start an alert from the badge reel or from the app.

Call an alert

Before you rely on the badge, leave mobile data, location, Bluetooth, and notifications on, and keep the app in the background.

From the badge reel

  1. Open the Kwema app once so it is running.
  2. Hold the button on the side of the badge reel for 3 seconds.
  3. The phone shows a notification that the alert is active.

From the app

On the home screen of the Kwema app, start an alert manually. Use this when you cannot reach the badge button.

Your organization's security team is notified with your location. They contact you by SMS or phone. If you do not respond, or you do not deactivate the alert, first responders can be sent to that location.

You, or someone on your administrative or security team, can deactivate the alert. See Badge reel FAQ.
