The Fire Responder Fire Alarm Notification application has been specifically developed to reduce the investigative time during a fire alarm, as a mobile phone based application. A reduction in the investigation time provides significant fire safety benefit to minimize disruption and maximize occupant awareness in a real emergency. The Fire Respond application can be configured to discriminate between various Fire Panel notification conditions including Alarms, Pre Alarms, Faults and Isolates. A record of events is captured locally and off site to allow easy interpolation of reoccurring or troublesome alarm conditions. The First Respond application can also be adapted to include or replace paging/nurse call, security notification devices and can have settings adjusted to “discretely” transmit alarms to specific individuals or groups. The application provides multiple redundancy in respect to notification systems within a building. Any individual licensed for a particular building effectively becomes part of the ERT (Emergency Response Team). The application works with any high level interface, including current Fire Alarm Panels.

@Watch brings Internet Time to your Apple Watch! Internet Time, originally proposed in 1998, and featured on many digital watches around the turn of the millennium, is a way of representing time as a fraction of a day. Each day is divided into 1,000 “beats,” each lasting roughly 1 minute and 26 seconds. Internet Time also does away with time zones, so you can plan your chat with friends elsewhere on the planet without having to convert times between your respective local times. @Watch allows you to add the current Internet Time to any watch face that supports Complications. It also includes a handy converter between Internet Time and standard time, for planning ahead. @Watch runs entirely on your own watch, contains no advertisements, requires no account, and uses App Store analytics for crash reports only.
