BIWAPP

BIWAPP is the Citizen Information & Warning App. Current information, warnings and disaster reports for your selected locations and the selected area are sent directly to your smartphone.

Specify individually which topics you would like to be informed about, e.g. School absenteeism, traffic accidents, fire, flooding, bomb disposal or general warnings. All messages are written and created by your municipality. Your municipality alone decides which information is to be set. So you always have all the important messages from your region up to date.
