If you've got a smart phone, you've got a way to take the guessing game out of concussions. During the the height of high school football season there's a new tool in play to help coaches and parents quickly recognize concussion signs and symptoms. The app shows you the 12 danger signs that need emergency attention.

There's a button built in to call 911. You can save all of your information into your profile, follow instructions to know what do next, and take a picture of the person.

The Concussion Recognition Response app costs just under four dollars. and a portion of the proceeds are donated to concussion research.
