Lee County Emergency Management is making an evacuation app available as Southwest Florida heads into hurricane season.
This free LeeEvac app is available for Android-based devices, such as cell phones and tablets, as well as for Apple devices, such as iPhones and iPads. The LeeEvac app allows users to see when and where evacuations are being ordered in real-time with push notifications. Users can also find their Hurricane Surge Evacuation Zone at any time by using the onboard GPS or searching by address.
“The ability to effectively inform people who may be required to evacuate is a critical part of protecting our community. The LeeEvac app uses familiar technology to provide personalized information to help people protect themselves and their loved ones,” said Lee County Emergency Management Planning Chief Gerald Campbell.
The LeeEvac app is free and can be downloaded from the iTunes App Store or the Google Play Android Apps Store.
