SOS-Expat is a web application that requires an internet connection to work. The interface is designed to be lightweight and work on modest-quality connections. For the phone call itself, the platform uses Twilio, a robust IP telephony service.
  • The interface (search, profiles, payment) works on a 3G or basic Wi-Fi connection
  • The phone call itself goes through your phone or internet network — a stable connection improves audio quality
  • If your connection is very poor, the provider can call you back on your local phone number
The app is accessible from any browser, with no installation or download required.
