Following article contains a description of selected applications for mobile devices, such as smartphones or tablets, which tasks are to inform the public about hazards, as well as calling for help. The focus was on software widely available in online app store (Google Play), and due to the imperfections of the programs mentioned, it was decided to develop own application called “Rescue Application Volunteer”. Its main purpose and functionality covers help summoning for oneself and other people, also marking places on map where e.g. fire is starting or local threat is arising. Various solutions of these problems were given and issues related to the protection of personal data in this type of applications were discussed.
