The Punjab Safe Cities Authority has made important improvements to its Public Safety App, making it much easier for people to get help in an emergency. One of the biggest changes is that the app can now work even without an internet connection. This means that people living in far-off areas or places with poor mobile signals will still be able to use it when they need support the most.
The updated app comes with many useful features. For example, there is a gesture-based SOS alert system that lets users quickly send out a distress signal. It can also send notifications in case of accidents, give timely alerts about floods, and help families track the location of their loved ones. Special attention has been given to people with disabilities. The app now offers services such as live agents who can communicate using sign language, automatic fall detection for people with epilepsy, lock-screen identification, and other helpful tools designed to make it inclusive for everyone.
For the first 30 days, people will be able to use the app without paying for mobile data, thanks to a partnership with the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority. This free access will allow more citizens to try it out and benefit from its services.
Through the app, users can connect directly with emergency responders such as the police, ambulance services, the fire brigade, and disaster management teams. With these upgrades, the Public Safety App is becoming a vital tool for saving lives, improving response times, and making emergency support more accessible to all communities in Punjab.
Would you like me to also make this sound like a news article (journalistic style) or keep it in a press release style that sounds more official and promotional?
