Microsoft India has launched Guardian, a new safety app for Windows Phone. This app has track me feature to track friends and family, lets users call for help through an ‘SOS’ alert button and connect to security agencies, police and hospitals easily in the time of distress. It uses Microsoft Windows Azure cloud services and Bing Map APIs.
The phone can be traced even if it is broken and the application is capable of one touch video recording that may be used later as evidence, says Microsoft India.
Speaking about the Guardian app, Raj Biyani, Managing Director, Microsoft IT India said,
