GroupAlarm

GroupAlarm is a free emergency alerting app purpose-built for first responders, on-call teams, and emergency personnel who need instant coordination during critical operations.

Stay instantly connected with your team through targeted mobile alerts and push notifications. When an alarm is triggered, all team members receive complete deployment details via encrypted connections, ensuring nothing is missed. You'll never lose an alert—even when your phone is in silent mode, GroupAlarm's intelligent notification system breaks through to reach you.

Respond faster with real-time feedback mechanisms. Acknowledge alarms directly from your lock screen with an overlay interface, and the app automatically calculates your estimated arrival time (with your permission). Dispatchers get immediate confirmation of who can participate, eliminating communication delays during time-critical situations.

Maintain complete visibility of your alerting history. View all past and current alarms organized by personal and team operations, with full details including organization name, timestamps, deployment keywords, termination status, location maps, and participant responses. This comprehensive record supports debriefing, compliance, and operational improvement.

Manage your availability with precision. Set recurring time-based availabilities or location-based geofences to automatically update your status. The system respects your schedule and location, ensuring alerts only reach personnel who can actually respond.

Communicate seamlessly within your organization. Use the integrated messenger to coordinate across freely configurable groups and directly with all personnel involved in an operation. Combine alerting and messaging in one platform to streamline your workflow.

Customize your alert experience. Choose from your own custom alert tones or predefined sounds, with individual settings per organization. Test your notification configuration anytime via the web interface using safe test alarms.

Secure your alerts with biometric authentication. Protect app access using fingerprint or face recognition, keeping sensitive operational data safe on your device. Access GroupAlarm with a single login across multiple organizations.
