The latest version of the Ok Alone lone worker app provides Siri shortcuts so you can use Siri to update your Ok Alone status wherever you are and whatever you’re doing.
Siri is the voice controlled personal assistant on your iPhone. Siri allows you to use your voice to do things on your iPhone, such as sending an SMS, making a phone call or playing music. Any user with an iPhone can now easily use Siri to start a shift, check in or get help – all by using their voice, completely hands free.
How Does Ok Alone Work with Siri?
When you have installed Ok Alone and registered your account using your Worker ID, you will be provided with some shortcuts to Siri. These short cuts allow you to ‘Open Ok Alone, ‘Start Shift’, Check In’, ‘Get Help’ or ‘End Shift.’ All you need to do is set up a voice command for each action and you’re ready to go. This then allows you to use your voice to ask Siri to perform actions on the Ok Alone lone worker app.
