Apart from these features, the mobile application enables users to securely create and share incident reports with photos or video clips. Also, the consumer can share their posts or others posts through their social media sites like Twitter or Facebook accounts. Not only this, the app provides two-way push notifications for alerting users of valuable information instantly and supports real-time visual communication with first responders during emergencies. The social applications for community awareness and security are FERPA, CIPA, and HIPAA compliant.
