The Orlando Police Department is excited to announce the launch of its new public safety app. The app
is designed to empower residents with real-time information, enhance community safety, and increase
community engagement, as outlined in Chief Smith’s vision.
The Orlando Police Department app aims to consolidate OPD resources on the City of Orlando’s website
into a user-friendly app that will significantly enhance accessibility, allow users to report non-emergency
issues, learn valuable crime prevention tips, and more. The Orlando Police Department app provides
residents with a range of features, including:
• Active Call Updates: Users can receive real-time notifications about ongoing incidents in their
area, keeping them informed of developments as they happen.
• Neighborhood Incidents: Stay updated on local incidents to better understand community
safety and trends.
• Events Calendar: Keep track of local events and community meetings to foster participation and
connection, including upcoming Citizen Academies.
• Crime Prevention Tips: Access valuable resources and strategies for crime prevention to help
keep families and neighborhoods safe.
• Records Request: Simplify the process of requesting public records with an easy-to-use interface
that promotes transparency and accountability.
• Careers: Explore career opportunities with the nationally recognized Orlando Police
Department.
• Community Resources: Access to vital information and resources designed to help residents in
need of support and assistance.
“Our goal with the OPD app is to create a safer, more connected community. In an increasingly digital
world, we believe OPD resources should be readily available to the people we serve. It is my hope that
the OPD app will strengthen community engagement by making our public safety materials accessible to
everyone, anywhere, with the tap of a smartphone.” – Chief Eric Smith
