Allows your personnel to update their status (i.e. Responding Station 1, Available, etc.). Their ETA is tracked while responding.

Both are free to download. Chief Mobile sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. GeoSafe Mobile asks for nothing beyond the download.
GeoSafe Mobile holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Chief Mobile has 43 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of GeoSafe Mobile's written reviews are positive against 66% of Chief Mobile's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
GeoSafe Mobile ships an update monthly, Chief Mobile every 5 weeks. Both last shipped on October 29, 2026.
