About Swivel Public Safety
Swivel is a mobile app that receives localized, time-sensitive alerts directly from public safety providers. If there is an incident near you (or one of your addresses of interest), you’ll be automatically and expediently alerted. No bias, no opinions or comments, no social media noise. Information straight from a trusted source to help keep you out of harm’s way. Swivel is developed by the Public Safety Council Corp. The Swivel Public Safety mobile app is designed to support a whole-of-society approach to public safety without compromising privacy rights or civil liberties. Swivel sends alerts to your mobile device, but we don't know your name, telephone number or email address, and we don't collect any personal information nor do we track your location. We respect your privacy.
What’s new
Version 1.0i · Updated September 29, 2026
Jurisdiction-Wide Alerts • New "Jurisdiction-wide" section at the bottom of the Alerts List, showing alerts issued for your entire jurisdiction. • The bell icon now takes you straight to the Alerts List with the Jurisdiction-wide section already open. The notification dot now lights up only for jurisdiction-wide alerts. • The separate Regional Alerts screen has been removed — all of its alerts are already available in the Alerts List sections. Clearer Alert Times • Incident detail now shows both "Incident Reported Time" (when the incident was reported) and "Incident Alerting Time" (when the alert was issued), which can differ due to processing delays. Feedback • New "Feedback" link in the side menu to send us your comments directly from the app. Private Groups • Private Groups enrollment is now available in production.
