The Amarillo Police Department announced that they will be joining the Neighbors App by Ring.
This will provide the Amarillo community with real-time, local crime and safety information.
The Neighbors App already has millions of users and has been instrumental in catching package thieves, stopping burglaries, and keeping neighborhoods safe.
The app can be used to monitor neighborhood activity; share crime and safety-related videos, photos and text-based posts; and receive real-time safety alerts from their neighbors, local law enforcement and the Ring team.
How It Works
- Download the Neighbors app on iOS and Android here: https://download.ring.com/amarillo or by texting ‘apd’ to 555-888 from your smartphone.
- Opt-in to join your neighborhood.
- Customize the geographic area you want to receive notifications for (users must verify where they are located and cannot participate in other neighborhoods).
- Receive real-time alerts from your neighbors, local law enforcement and the Ring team that informs of crime and safety alerts as they happen.
- View local crime and safety posts via a live feed or interactive map.
- Share text updates, photos and videos taken on any device, including Ring’s home security devices.
- Work with your community to make neighborhoods safer.
