CRI App Test To Be Carried Out

Gardaí have announced a notification test of the CRI Alert app on Friday morning.

Garda have asked the public to make sure they have the most up to date version of the app, or to download it if they do not have it on their phone.

In order to continue to ensure the processes and structures of the CRI alert are being maintained to the highest standard, testing of the CRI Alert app (available for free on all platforms at the respective stores) is taking place this morning, Friday 7th August, at 11.30am.

We’d also like to take this opportunity to thank both the media and the public for their continued assistance during all CRI alerts to date.
