Then a 30-second countdown. It sends on its own.
If the moment passes, slide “I’m safe” and nothing happens. If you can’t, ELA sends.
“Send help now” sends at once.
Hold for three seconds. We send for help.
ELA is a legal emergency membership for UAE residents: if you’re arrested, one hold on your iPhone or Apple Watch tells a vetted law firm, your consulate and your family.
Get the app
Available on iPhone and Apple Watch.
Phone locked, dead, or taken: it still runs.
Press and hold the disc.
Demo with the real app. The watch shows its hold screen, in step with the phone. Nothing is sent from this page.
What happens when you hold.
Your Apple Watch holds too.
The same three seconds, from your wrist, with your phone in a bag or on a desk.
The case never waits on your phone.
Once the hold commits, the response runs on ELA’s servers, so a locked, dead, or taken phone doesn’t stop it.
We take it from here.
- A vetted law firm is notified. Engaged the moment it accepts. If it can’t act, ELA is already finding another. Legal fees are agreed between you and the law firm.
- Your consulate is informed. Your consulate’s emergency desk gets the case brief.
- Your family gets a private live link. Sent only to the people you chose.
- A human team tracks the case. Real people, on chat and voice.
Example timeline. Timings vary by case.
Your family doesn’t need the app.
The private link opens in a browser: live location, each milestone, and the name of the lawyer acting for you.
A human team, in your case thread.
Send a voice note, get a reply, and see the moment your lawyer makes contact, all in one thread.
Example timeline. Timings vary by case.
If you’re arrested in the UAE, you’re not on your own.
The launch film. 45 seconds, with sound.
One membership. The same response for every member.
Weekly, monthly or yearly: the hold, the response and the team are the same whichever you choose.
