Setup with instructions The alarm-only function is plug-and-play, but the contact notification feature — the primary AT value — requires downloading an app, Bluetooth pairing, and configuring emergency contacts. A family member could complete this in under 30 minutes with the app's guidance, making guided setup appropriate rather than self-serve.

What it is

Summary

AI-generated from vendor-published content · July 16, 2026

A wearable panic button that triggers a loud local alarm when pressed and, when connected to the SquareGlow smartphone app via Bluetooth, sends alerts to pre-designated emergency contacts. It hangs from a lanyard so the person wearing it always has it within reach — useful for someone who lives alone, has fall risk, or may need to summon help quickly without being able to reach a phone. This is a two-part solution: the button works as a standalone audible alarm on its own, but the contact-notification feature requires a paired smartphone running the SquareGlow app nearby. At this price point, don't expect cellular or GPS functionality — range is limited to Bluetooth proximity to the paired phone.
