The Lee County EMA is proud to offer this free app to the citizens who live and work in and around Lee County, Alabama. This app is intended to provide you with everyday information about our office and the services we provide, as well as the ability to provide emergency notifications to your phone.
Featuring:
- Where Am I?
- Local Weather & Alerts
- Damage Reports
- ALDOT Road Conditions
- Emergency Information
- Amber Alerts for the State of Alabama
- Latest News & Updates
- Twitter & Facebook integration
- Event Calendar
This app is not intended to replace your primary means of emergency notification due to the inability for us to ensure that that the notifications from this app will make it to your phone 100% of the time. Technical issues like power outages at cell towers, to the amount of signal your phone has, to internet outages, etc. prevent us from ensuring you will get a notification in real time, every time an incident occurs.
Optional Permissions Requirements -
All features requiring user permission to work properly will prompt user. No permissions will be granted unless authorized by individual user. For the best experience, and to get the most functionality out of the app, it is suggested that you allow access to the following services:
- Location Services (used by the "Weather" and "Where Am I?" features to determine users current location)
- Push Notifications (used by the "Emergency Alerts" feature to notify users of eminent threats and other emergency information)
- Photos and Camera (used by the "Damage Reports" feature to submit photos to the EMA)
