CodeRED Mobile Alert App
Residents and visitors can now receive enhanced public safety alerts no matter where they are through theCodeRED Mobile Alert app, a free public safety app for both Android and iPhone users.

If you are currently a CodeRED subscriber that has already registered your mobile phone to get notifications from the Marion County Emergency Management, you will continue to receive calls. However, if you download the app, you will also be able to get alerts to your smartphone anywhere in the country, including Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and Alaska.
