Description

U of T Campus Safety is the official safety app of University of Toronto. It is the only app that integrates with University of Toronto's safety and security systems. Campus Police has worked to develop a unique app that provides students, faculty and staff with added safety on the University of Toronto campus. The app will send you important safety alerts and provide instant access to campus safety resources.

U of T Campus Safety features include:

- Emergency Contacts: Contact the correct services for the University of Toronto area in case of an emergency or a non-emergency concern

- Report an Incident: Multiple ways to report a safety/security concern directly to University of Toronto Campus Police.

- Support Resources: Access support resources in one convenient app to enjoy a successful experience at University of Toronto.

Terrible response rate

Requested campus police, waited for 2 hours for nothing. Waste of time

No Connection with Parents

As a mother of an incoming university student, this app really failed me on first download. My daughter said their college at U of T was promoting this app but it doesn’t even seem like she can contact me with this app and contact campus police as well.

Then I looked at other universities’ apps. Why do they all look the same as this one? Doesn’t my daughter have different needs than someone in University of Florida or at Queen’s?

Thanks for your feedback! We're always looking to improve the app, and your suggestion of simultaneous contact to both police and parents is a great suggestion. I'll bring this up with our development team to see if we can enhance the app to add this capability in the future.

Regarding your concerns about the app looking the same as others... It's true that we share much of the same technology as several hundred other institutions around the globe through our App vendor. That said, all the resources are configured for users at each institution. So the U of T app will connect with local U of T resources.
