Dispatchr
Neighborhood Insights & Trends
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Know your neighbourhood. Not just what happened, but what's normal.
Dispatchr turns official public-safety dispatch data into a clear picture of your city and the streets around you: what's happening now, how it compares to a typical day, and how your area is trending. Context, not alarm.
YOUR NEIGHBOURHOOD, AT A GLANCE
Pick your neighbourhood and Dispatchr does the rest. You get the real boundary on the map, today's activity against the usual, the busiest and quietest areas across the city, and a focused view of just your streets. Or zoom out and explore the whole city.
INSIGHTS, NOT JUST INCIDENTS
The dashboard reads your city for you: peak-activity hours, neighbourhood rankings, what's trending up or down, rare sightings worth a second look, and activity spotlights. City Reports summarize every weekday, weekend and month, and you can have them emailed, including an edition for your own neighbourhood.
LIVE MAP & FEED
Events appear as clean, colour-coded markers by type and priority, with details a tap away: call type, location, time, priority and responding agency. Filter by service, event type, priority or neighbourhood; sort by newest, oldest, type or priority; share any event by link.
NOTIFICATIONS THAT FIT YOUR LIFE
No account needed. Follow exactly what you care about and manage it all in one place: your neighbourhood, your whole city, priority calls only, one agency, new reports, spotlights or rare events.
LOOK BACK IN TIME
See the recent window free, or search any day in the last 30 days on Plus to spot patterns.
DATA YOU CAN TRUST
Dispatchr ingests official agency feeds and validates every event. Anomalies are flagged, never hidden, so you know the confidence behind what you see. Counts are when calls were reported, not when things happened, and update frequency varies by city and agency.
FOR BUSINESSES AND HOMES: DISPATCHR PRO
Watch the places you're responsible for, whether that's a storefront, a building or your home. Set an address and a watch radius, choose what you want to be told about, and get alerts by push, email, webhook, Slack or Teams with escalation to your team. Per-site reports included. Prepaid per site, nothing auto-renews.

FREE TO START
Free includes every city, the live map and feed, all filters, neighbourhood detection and rankings, city reports, email reports and notifications. Plus adds the 24-hour window, auto-refresh, activity heat maps over 7, 30 or 90 days, 30-day history search, data-quality insights and higher limits. One Plus covers Dispatchr and Parkr, our parking companion app, on the same account.
Built for residents who want context, commuters checking a route, community groups, journalists, and anyone curious about the place they live.
Dispatchr is an informational tool based on publicly available dispatch data. It is not a way to contact emergency services. In an emergency, always call 911.
