1. A computer-readable non-transitory storage medium having instructions encoded thereon that, in response to execution, cause a computing device to perform operations comprising:
- receiving, from a user input device of the computing device, an instruction to monitor acceleration of the computing device;
collecting acceleration information indicative of the acceleration of computing device;
determining, using at least a portion of the acceleration information, that the computing device satisfies a distress condition; and
sending a distress communication to a destination device that facilitates a safety service within a pre-defined coverage area,wherein the distress communication is sent to the destination device via a previously established connection with a server device that is functionally coupled to the destination device, the previously established connection with the server device being based on login information associated with a previously-established user account on a remote computing device, and the connection being established when the computing device is within the pre-defined coverage area.

Abstract
Systems, devices, and methods for emergency responses are provided. A client device can be provided with a response to an emergency via a networked system that can determine that the client device is located with a defined area of coverage, and can route a call session to a answering platform associated with answering station device that can facilitate a facilitate a safety service. Client devices located outside the coverage area can be directed to communicate via a call to 911.
