The company has also embedded an automatic response system in the app which helps one to share location to trusted contacts in case you didn’t respond within a time limit. One can expand time limit of automatic reply from 5 minutes up to an hour. Moreover, the company has also updated its existing Trusted Contacts app, adding nine new languages including Urdu.
