Burgernet

Look out for suspicious or missing persons, receive AMBER Alerts, and help make your neighborhood safer. Using the Burgernet app is free and anonymous.

Nearly 4 out of 10 Burgernet actions are solved thanks to tips from citizens. The more people participate, the greater the chance of finding something or someone.

How Burgernet works
Burgernet is used for cases including theft or burglary, hit-and-run incidents, robberies, and missing persons. You'll receive an action notification via the Burgernet app when something like this happens in your area. Seen something? Your information will be sent directly to the police via the app.

AMBER Alert
You'll also receive AMBER Alerts via the Burgernet app when a missing child is in mortal danger. You can recognize an AMBER Alert by its orange color and the title "AMBER Alert."

About the app
The app uses your smartphone's location to send you messages about actions in your neighborhood, even when you're away from home. Participation is anonymous; your information or location is not tracked.
