ALICE ALERT

About ALICE ALERT Android App

The ALICE ALERT app is a communication tool that enables organizations to Alert and Inform people when there is a security or safety issue. ALICE ALERT enhances the safety of schools, hospitals, corporations and other organizations by increasing the accuracy of threat reports and boosting situational awareness. People using the app may immediately share security concerns with others, providing situation awareness during an incident. A description of the incident is transmitted, along with photos or video and a map indicating where the report was sent from.

Commands: Evacuate, Lockdown or Shelter In Place
Authority-level employees can issue commands by using the app. Examples of commands are Evacuate, Lockdown or Shelter In Place. Other users of the ALICE ALERT app will be notified of the command and the reason it was sent.

Purposeful Chat
App users may chat with each other or with administrators about security concerns or an incident in progress. Chat supports sending text descriptions, photos and location-of-incident maps.

Check-in
Users may quickly share their location by sending a map and their status. i.e. if they are “OK” or “Need Help”. This information can be shared with friends and family by Email or SMS.

For quickly contacting police, there is a Call Police button on the main screen.

ELERTS EPICenter
Your system administrator will authorize which people should have access to the ALICE ALERT app for their organization, using the ELERTS EPICenter web based management console. This is a communication service provided by your organization or employer.
