With the arrival of warmer weather and plenty of people taking advantage of the outdoors, Brisbane Water Police are encouraging residents to download the updated Emergency+ app.
The app works across Australia, using GPS functionality built into smartphones to help a Triple Zero (000) caller provide critical location details required to mobilise emergency services.
The updated app now includes ‘what3words’, a software enhancement allowing Triple Zero (000) callers to provide their exact location quickly and accurately with just three words describing the address to assist responding emergency services.
Save the app that could save your life.
