Digital ride-hailing apps have long been working on their app logistics to inculcate a feature that will help its passengers to activate an emergency button as soon as they suspect some kind of trouble.

Safety apps, especially for women, are being developed to make sure that passengers are able to reach out to their near and dear ones. Just last month, we discussed the ‘Sawdhaan’ app that helps women in distress to send a photo of them, GPS location, sound and video recording only by pressing the volume button.
