ASCIA Grid app for iPhone and iPad

Built for the Association of State Criminal Investigators (ASCIA), ASCIA Grid enhances collaboration by allowing ASCIA users to find each other by location, agency or specialty; then to connect and collaborate one-to-one or in groups, share images, location and real-time intelligence in instant messaging conversations or a 1-click conference call.

Private 1:1 and group chat. Share images, video and your location. Create or edit the name of group conversations you start. Notifications will alert you to new messages received. View information on all participants in a group chat even if youre not connected. Start an instant teleconference with your chat group with just one tap.

ALERTS
Receive critical alerts instantly from other ASCIA members. Acknowledge received alerts with "Accept" or "Reject" status, or choose "Reply" to alert sender with additional input. Push notifications will let you know when a new alert is received. Read receipts let your coordinator know whether youve seen the alert. A backup email will let you know about an alert when youre away from your phone.

GEO-CAST
Broadcast your location to ASIA if requested. ASCIA Grid will continue transmitting your location at a battery-friendly interval until you tap the button again to turn it off or logout.

Note: Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
