FDNY 2507 App allows for real time member engagement. Launch the app, follow and view the latest news, events and job opportunities. Quickly swipe through content - bookmark what is of interest, toss aside what isnt. Users can easily act, and engage on important initiatives. Never miss important updates again!
HereNow provides information on important location-based/time-sensitive events, news via push notifications. For example: a FDNY 2507 member receives an important update when arriving at the firehouse or union hall. User has ability to opt-in or deny this feature.
Our HereNow feature requires persistent location. HereNow provides the ability to deliver content that is location relevant. With HereNow an organization can set a location, a radius, a time period, and attach a content item. When an app user who is following the organization and has opted in for push notifications and has enabled location sharing arrives at that location, the content item is delivered. This is a critically important feature for our platform. It is important to note that we do not sell, mine, or share use data. There is not advertising in our platform. Use location is ONLY used to deliver HereNow content that is explicitly created by an organization that a user has chosen to follow and who has explicitly opted-in to receive by enabling location services. We do not maintain any tracking information whatsoever. The app pings the platform to determine if the user is within a HereNow activation zone, and no record of their travels is maintained.
