These are the fall settings. If a fall is detected it can either automatically call for help or you can swipe to have someone called. If you don't swipe after like 15 seconds, I think that's the time frame, then it'll call for help. I prefer to have to swipe because I've noticed when I clap too hard it detects it as a fall. There's isn’t a help button just to press for an emergency without it detecting something first.
