The app allows designated Albuquerque staff members to trigger an active shooter alert the moment a threat is identified, significantly speeding up the response process. Its simple, stress-friendly design ensures it can be used effectively even when user abilities are strained during high-pressure events. Unlike other systems, LockNow provides location-specific alerts without using location services, tailored to your school’s layout for maximum effectiveness.
