Overview
Emergency Chat can be used in any situation where speech is impossible but communication is still necessary.
The app presents a splash screen that explains to the person you gave your device to that you can't use speech and want to use this app to communicate. You can then continue to the next screen which has a simple chat client. The default text is aimed at people experiencing an autistic meltdown, where their speech centres stay non-functional for a while even after they've recovered, but you can edit it or add additional splash screens to suit your needs. You can also pin them to Start so you can get to them quickly and easily.
The Windows version is the first to include support for multiple splash screens for different conditions, and saving of chat history. These features will be added to the Android and iOS versions in future updates.
Privacy note: all chat history is recorded on the device itself and your messages are not delivered over a network. This is not an online messaging app! See the privacy policy for details.
