Today the FBI released a version of its
Child ID App built for Android mobile devices.
The Child ID App provides parents and
caregivers with an easy way to electronically store pictures and vital
information about their children in case they go missing—whether it’s a toddler
wandering away at the mall or a teen who has been snatched by a stranger.
Using the app, you can show pictures of
your kids and provide physical identifiers such as height and weight to
security or police officers on the spot. You can also quickly and easily e-mail
the information to authorities with a few clicks. The app also includes tips on
keeping children safe as well as specific guidance on what to do in those first
few crucial hours after a child goes missing.
An iPhone version of the app was first
released in August 2011.
Download
the free app for iPhones from the iTunes store or for Android on Google Play.
