NEW TORNADO APP BRINGS SAFETY INFORMATION TO MOBILE DEVICES
|
|
The American Red Cross has released its official Tornado App. This FREE app gives iPhone, iPad and Android smart phone and tablet users instant access to local and real-time information so they know what to do before, during and after a tornado.
The app includes a high-pitched siren and "tornado warning!" alert that signals when a NOAA tornado warning has been issued in their area - even if users have the app closed. An "all clear!" alert lets users know when a tornado warning has expired or has been cancelled.
For more information about the app and how to download it, visit TulsaWorld.
