This application may help you in an emergency situation, and maybe save your life.

Suppose you are lost somewhere, or you had an accident and you are wounded, or your car had a breakdown.
Sure, you have your iPhone and you can call for assistance.
But imagine you are in an unknown place, and there arent visible indications to identify your position.
How can you tell your rescuers where exactly you are ?

This application can detect you current position using GPS, and send an email giving the exact coordinates: latitude and longitude of your location.

The people who receive this email, can enter the coordinates in Google Maps, or Google Earth, find your exact position, and come to your rescue.

The application has a Configure option, and allows you to store a list of mail addresses to be used when calling for help. Using this option will speed up the procedure in case of emergency, because you dont need to manually enter the mail address: you will find them automatically inserted.
The message body also will be automatically composed, so you only have to touch the "Send" button.

The email will have this look:

======================================

To: first.destination@hotmail.com and more…
