The Los Angeles Fire Department is pleased to unveil LAFDmobile, a free application for iPhone and Android smartphones.

Created and funded as a proof-of-concept by a veteran firefighter to support the "LAFD Everywhere" initiative, LAFDmobile is designed to put timely and authoritative information into the hands of mobile Angelenos.

Though the free application works only on two platforms at this time, there are plans to include other popular devices.

Convenient and easy to use, LAFDmobile consolidates many of the Los Angeles Fire Department's existing on-line offerings into a single mobile dashboard.

To install the LAFDmobile application on your iPhone or Android device, simply enter the URL (web address) below into your smartphone's existing browser:
