Emergency SMS · Android

Your message waits.
The moment signal returns, it's gone.

Write it once. ESMS quietly watches for signal — even one bar — and sends your message the instant it's reachable. No app to babysit, no signal to chase.

What it does

Built for the moment you can't refresh your bars.

Auto-send on signal

ESMS checks quietly in the background. The instant even one bar appears, your message goes out — no need to open the app.

SOS mode

Turn it on and ESMS keeps retrying until the message is confirmed sent — built for situations that don't get a second chance.

Location attached

Your last known position is added automatically at the moment you write the message — so whoever reads it knows where to look.

Dual-SIM aware

Pick SIM 1, SIM 2, or leave it on auto and ESMS sends through whichever card finds signal first.

How it works

Three steps. Then you can forget about it.

01 — WRITE

Write once, add it to the queue

Enter a number and your message before you lose signal — on the trailhead, at the airport, before you head into the woods.

02 — WAIT

Your phone watches quietly

No open app, no battery drain from constant checking. ESMS stores it securely and waits for a signal to appear.

03 — SEND

Delivered the moment it can be

As soon as signal returns — one bar is enough — your message and location go out automatically.
