1. Finally, you can sign up for alerts directly from public safety officials about hazards in your area, like pandemic updates, requests for crime tips, or warnings about break-ins, thefts, missing persons, and more.

2. No matter where you are in the United States, we're trying to encourage collaborative crime-prevention and crime-solving by establishing better relationships between police and their neighbors, before a safety concern even happens.

3. Our crime map shows incidents reported and safety broadcasts from police nearby, so you can be aware of safety concerns and crime trends in your area.

4. We only ask for permissions on your phone at the time they’re needed, and we work hard to make clear what happens with the information you share, when you’re choosing to share it, rather than burying it in some privacy policy.

5. With Relay, you report your safety concern directly to nearby officers, and get status updates back.

6. Relay is a new platform for non-emergency incidents.

7. You can even exchange messages with responding officers, so long as the responding agency is integrated with our platform.
