Citizen App Unveils Enhanced Public Safety Features in Austin, Charlotte, and Houston
Citizen, the leading public safety app in the U.S., is enhancing its presence in Austin, TX., Charlotte, NC., and Houston, TX., and unveiling new features with Citizen Plus alongside increased real-time safety alerts.
Now available to the cities’ 5+ million residents, Citizen unlocks the powerful ability to:
- Listen to Police and Fire Radios
- Customize Your Alerts
- Unlock Past Incidents
- Create Alert Zones
- See Crime Statistics
- View Registered Offenders
Citizen’s mobile application and technology keeps people aware of local safety information through 24/7, real-time notifications about nearby emergencies and ongoing incidents like car collisions, fires, and missing persons. Citizen Premium, the company’s flagship safety product, offers access to 24/7 highly trained safety agents.
“With newly enhanced coverage, Austin, Charlotte, and Houston residents are now able to fully customize their safety experiences. It’s all about putting the power right back in your hands, letting you decide what matters most when it comes to your safety,” said Julia Knight, Director of Product Marketing. “We’ve listened to what people want and are thrilled to bring an increased number of safety alerts, features, and transparency to the streets of these cities.”
With over 15 million downloads nationwide, Citizen has helped to evacuate people from burning buildings, diverted school buses from nearby terrorist attacks and, just a few months ago, led to the rescue of a 22-year-old girl who was found in New York three months after she went missing from her hometown, Chicago.
Citizen is a free app available for iOS and Android platforms. Citizen is committed to growing a global community of people protecting each other and making the world a safer place. Learn more about the app and download [here].
