StreetShield is a hyperlocal community safety awareness app designed for calm, factual local information. Use StreetShield to view nearby incident signals, check local activity on a map, receive relevant alerts, and coordinate with trusted local Circles. Reports are designed to be short, behaviour-focused, and privacy-safe so neighbours can understand what is happening without naming suspects, exposing private details, or encouraging confrontation. Key features: - Local map, incident feed, and selected-area alerts - Structured reports with approximate location and privacy-safe wording - Trusted Circles for smaller local coordination - StreetShield Plus: incident reporting, more incident details, public and private chats, useful alerts, and private local Circles - Community guidelines, reporting tools, and moderation workflows - Emergency reminders: call local emergency services in emergencies StreetShield is not an emergency service, dispatch system, law enforcement tool, or suspect-identification product. It does not replace local emergency services. If there is an immediate threat to life, safety, property, fire, or medical wellbeing, call local emergency services immediately.
