GOES is a must have app. It encourages me to explore the outdoors safely and with confidence. Having gone through a knee replacemnt surgery for a while i didnt feel comfortable hiking and walking out of fear i would further injure my knee. As someone who loves hiking i found this very difficult. Once i learnt about GOES I felt a lot more confident to go outdoors again because i knew that if something were to to happen i would have the best resource in my back pocket.

Amazing app! A few days ago, we went for a hike in the mountains of Ras Al Khaimah with a group of friends. One member of our group fainted about 2 hours into the hike. We used GOES to identify the problem as heat exhaustion and then followed the instructions to help them first to recover and eventually to return safely back to the car. Definititely a must have for anyone who wants to explore the outdoors with confidence.

Ingenious app! Easy to use interface and gives me peace of mind if I get into trouble in the wild. I also appreciate the landing page which gives me the local time and weather with the associated warnings!
