Since there have been more and more Wechat users, security departments of many cities have launched police alarm systems on Wechat.
For example
● On the “110 Awareness Day” of Jan. 10th, 2018, video alarm system was co-launched by Yantai police station and Tencent. So far, the system can be used in the official Wechat of Yantai police station (Wechat ID: ytgawx) by clicking “微警务” or “@110”.
● In 2014, the function of “calling police with one click” was launched in the official Wechat of Houjie Town, Dongguan police station (Wechat ID: pinganhoujiewechat). Users can call the police once they send their names, phone numbers, addresses and reasons for alarm on the Wechat platform.
● Official accounts including “安徽110 (ID: ahga110)”, “西安110 (ID: xa-police)” and “江西公安 (ID: jxgagfwx)” also launched online alarm systems.
Specifically, when you call the police on Wechat, you’d better write down your calling reason, detail address, time and also event situation.
When should you use
Wechat alarm system?
❶ When you are aware that you are trapped into telecommunication fraud, you should save the chatting records with the cheater and then send those records as well as remittance receipts to the police online. In this way, the police can help you stop the payment process so as to get back the money as soon as possible.
❷ When you are tailed after a criminal, you can have a video call with the police. In this way, you will make the criminal face to the police directly and scare him somehow!
Calling the police
via mini program
Besides from Wechat official accounts, users can also call police via Wechat mini programs. Similarly, users can call the police by sending messages, pictures and voices through mini programs.
Particularly, there is a special police mini program launched by Qinzhou police station. It is only one button inside the program. A long press to the button makes it successful to call the police, just like dialing 110 directly! But you need to input the exact name of the mini program to search it on Wechat.
Video alarm is also another way for police to collect incriminating evidence. Apart from Wechat police alarm, there are apps that are used to deal with such emergency, such as “110”, “112” and “119” apps. Moreover, apps like “怕怕”， “查找朋友 (Find my friends)” can be used to record your real-time location and voice messages.
Emergency SOS
In addition, we have access to make emergency calls by our mobile phones including both iPhone and Android, even though the phone isn’t unlocked.
The function of“Emergency SOS”has been launched on iOS11 (both iPhone and AppleWatch) since October, 2017. Only if users set their emergency contacts can they “Slide to Emergency SOS” on the phone when it comes to emergency!
