Set Max Contacts

The Set Emergency Limit option in the Famalth ONE App allows you to decide how many emergency contacts can receive SOS alerts.
By default, you can set between 1 and 10 contacts, giving you flexibility in how wide your emergency network is.

Overview​

With Max Contacts, you can:

  • Define the maximum number of contacts who receive SOS alerts.
  • Choose any number between 1 to 10.
  • Prevent sending too many alerts, ensuring reliable delivery.
  • Update the limit anytime through Preferences.

How to Set Max Contacts​

  1. Open the Famalth ONE App.
  2. Go to Settings → Preferences.
  3. Tap Set Emergency Limit.
  4. Enter a number (1–10) for how many contacts will receive alerts.
  5. Tap Save to apply the new limit.
  6. To discard, tap Cancel.

Best Use Cases​

  • Fewer Contacts (1–3):
    Ideal for a tight safety circle (family or close friends).

  • More Contacts (4–10):
    Ideal for wider coverage (friends, colleagues, community support).

Benefits​

  • Ensures alerts are delivered only to important contacts.
  • Helps prevent delays by limiting unnecessary recipients.
  • Allows flexibility — add more contacts as your needs grow.
  • Balances reliability and reach.

Common Questions​

What is the recommended number?

We recommend 3–5 contacts for faster delivery and reliable response.

Can I change the limit later?

Yes. You can update the number anytime in Preferences → Set Emergency Limit.

Does lowering the limit remove contacts?

No. It just limits how many will receive alerts. You can reorder or edit your contact list separately.

Troubleshooting​
