Our Blue Security Mobile App, when installed on your smartphone, pinpoints your precise location - whether you are at the beach, out jogging, or hiking in a park - the moment you activate it in an emergency. Our state-of-the-art control centre receives the signal and makes contact with you to determine the type of emergency. We can then activate a range of emergency responses, from our own armed response officers in our operational areas, to ambulance services, the SAPS and roadside assistance services. But our app is more than just a panic alert button. It also places control of your home or business security firmly in your hands through your mobile phone, as it will receive instant notifications of activity on your alarm system whether you may be at work, home or out playing.
