assist-Mi® is an assistance app that offers help to disabled users on the go, allowing you to be more independent when accessing everyday goods and services.
The assist-Mi app removes barriers and connects the user directly with service providers to request real-time assistance at the touch of a button.
Why is the app unique?
The assist-Mi® app uses simple to use GPS technologies and two-way messaging, so service providers are ready for the disabled users’ arrival. Requests for assistance can all be made and accepted in real-time.
The service provider will understand the accessibility needs from a user’s personalised Mi-Profile™, so that you can arrive with full confidence that your individual requirements will be met.
The app also provides a directory of service providers, shops and offices that are accessible and can provide assistance. You can also find out about their accessibility arrangements and services offered.
