Once the deadline has passed, PhoneFlare begins sending emergency messages, but the user still has an opportunity to call it a false alarm and stop the messages. This disarm function includes a request to choose a color, an incorrect color choice gives the appearance that the alarm has been disabled, even through it actually continues to broadcast the user's GPS coordinates for the phone. PhoneFlare has an option to record audio to the phone and to catalog the unique device identifiers of nearby devices. If a user wants to retrieve the audio log, PhoneFlare staff will assist in retrieving the data and emailing it to a personal account. This app can be downloaded from both Apple and Google Play at no charge.
