Responder Tracking:
Real-time GPS updates for your responders. All of your department members can individually opt-in to share their current location when responding to a call in progress.
CAD Integration:
Integration with computer-aided dispatch systems for live dispatch information. Echo Responder processes your dispatch emails and displays them in a friendly format on your device.
Incident Chat:
Communicate directly with your responders. Messages are persisted so you wont need to repeat yourself in the event that a responder is out of radio range.
Landmark Tools:
Supplement your maps with hydrant and access box overlays. Echo Responder will show you the nearest landmarks to the scene of an incident when switching to the map view.
Pre-Plans:
Access and store notes and attachments for a location. Relevant information automatically pulled up for new incidents.
Personnel Management:
All of your department members contact information is readily available and searchable.
On Duty Setting:
Toggle your on-duty status in-app so your department can see who is available to respond to a call.
Notification Preferences:
Choose from 5 notification sounds for incident alerts and chat messages and choose which chat messages to get notifications from.
Disclaimer:
Continued use of the location sharing GPS feature running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life
