Sheriff’s office releases new mobile app

| April 8, 2020
Sheriff Timothy L. Rogers announced the release of a new mobile app for the Coshocton County Sheriff’s Office. The app is available as a free download from the iPhone and Android app stores.
The app’s timely release will mean the availability of alerts, news, and resources of importance to Coshocton County citizens and businesses.
This app includes two important COVID-19 resources:
– Sign up for CDC COVID-19 alerts from Settings/Notifications
– Access a COVID-19 feature with links to social media, travel notices, FAQs, and alerts
The submit a tip feature enables you to submit a crime tip directly to the sheriff’s office. Your tip – sent anonymously or with your contact information, along with photos – is confidential. App users are asked to submit tips regarding ongoing investigations. However, you should call 911 in the case of an emergency.
Scroll through the list of Coshocton County’s Most Wanted fugitives. If you encounter any of these fugitives, do not attempt to apprehend them; instead use the app’s Submit a Tip feature to send anonymous tips to the sheriff’s office.
Under Inmates, find the Inmate Roster, provided by Appriss Safety; under each inmate the public can sign up directly for change of status notifications. There is additional information on the county correctional facility, visitation, inmate funds, and inmate phone access.
Search for sex offenders (provided by Offender Watch) on an easy to access map or by list.
Other important features include drug prevention, conceal carry info, and contact information. Read and share social media posts from the Coshocton County Sheriff’s Office via Facebook news.
The Coshocton County Sheriff’s Office mobile app is created by TheSheriffApp.com, a division of OCV, LLC, which specializes in mobile app development for sheriff’s offices, health departments, and public safety. With more 500 apps in the app stores, OCV designs and develops custom apps for state, county, and local government agencies.
