GRAND ISLAND, NY, April 06, 2011 (Press-News.org) Sec-Cured Solutions announces the release of a personal safety feature for the iPhone named: SAFE-T-INFORMANT. Safe-T-Informant provides mobile location based notifications of potentially unsafe areas throughout the United States. The application locates and maps the iPhone user's current location and is updated continuously as they travel. They receive vibration and audio alerts as they enter into areas that have been identified as areas that could present a potential risk to their personal safety or property security. Now you can make informed decisions regarding travel stops for gas, meals and groceries while in your hometown or when traveling in unfamiliar areas.
"Violent crimes against unknowing victims are on the rise and yet today we are more mobile than ever before. Lead by our smartphones we venture to new restaurants, locate lodging, ATM locations, and rest or fuel stops. However, before Safe-T-Informant, there was a key bit of information missing from these mobile directions - what type of neighborhood is this in?" said Brian Chapin Chief Operating Officer for Sec-Cured Solutions. Chapin continued, "Whether in your hometown or traveling unfamiliar areas, being informed of areas that present an elevated risk to you or your family's personal safety or property's security is essential to avoid becoming a victim of crime!"
By processing multiple disparate data sources through proprietary algorithms, Safe-T-Informant creates and utilizes an accurate database of marked areas throughout the United States. This data is used in the iPhone feature and the TomTom and Garmin portable GPS products, to keep users informed of potential high crime areas.
Safe-T-Informant is currently available in the Apple App Store and additional information can be obtained at the product's web site: www.safe-t-informant.com/iphone.
Secured Solutions is a Balsam View LLC company that specializes in safety and security products, solutions and services. The company is a privately held company that was founded in Buffalo, New York in 2008 and since has been designing and developing unique products and solutions for the GPS and mobile market place.
