iWatch Mobile Apps

iWatch is a mobile application that enables citizens to turn in tips, images and videos about crimes or suspicious activities directly to law enforcement from almost any mobile phone or PC. Citizens can remain anonymous or may choose to disclose their identity. Crime tips or suspicious activity reports can be submitted through iWatch as text messages, emails or phone calls and all tips are sent in real-time to the law enforcement agency.

"We decided that the only thing missing in the 'See Something, Say Something' program was the mobile phone in the palm of your hand. Until we invented the iWatch application, no citizen could say something with enough immediacy or with the precise detail that a Fusion center or CID could fully benefit from having," said Dan Elliott. "We made it work where no other application could, and the proof is in the tips".

The iWatch Apps help Law Enforcement reach out to a "connected America" in ways never before possible. In the US, smartphones have become an ever-present tool used in progressively more and more diverse ways and Law Enforcement can now build relationships with a demographic that is expanding at a rate of 260% per year.. Cisco research reports 1. there will be nearly one mobile device per capita by 2015.
