Browsing: Gauteng e-Panic Button

Gauteng residents can use the provincial government’s free Gauteng e Panic Button app to request emergency assistance when they face danger. Launched in 2024, the initiative uses smartphone location information to connect people in distress with an emergency response network. Residents across Johannesburg, Tshwane, Ekurhuleni, Sedibeng and the West Rand can also prepare personal safety kits, save emergency contacts and familiarise themselves with available support services before an emergency occurs.
