QuikTip’s Presence at Independence Day Parade

Promoting QuikTip within the hosting community is an important aspect in making the app successful. In an effort to promote QuikTip within their community, White County Invested in Substance Abuse Eradication (WISE Coalition)  sponsored a float in both the Pangburn, ARquiktip, cell phone guy, anonymous tipping, crime fightiing and Higginson, AR Independence Day parades. WISE shared QuikTip with all of the attendees by handing out over 2,000 bookmarks to children during the Pangburn parade alone. They also passed out half page fliers to the adults.
This was Higginson’s first annual July 4th Community Freedom Celebration parade. It was held on July 5th at 10am. Kelli Weaver, WISE Coalition Program Director, said “Participation was amazing! The parade led into the park where there were fireworks and festivities.”
The highlight of the WISE float was the 6 foot QuikTip Cell Phone Guy (seen on the right).
Because of the impressive turnout at the Independence Day events, WISE was proud to announce the receipt of several new tips and an increase in app downloads.

The anonymous information provided is sent to the 911 Dispatch Center who reviews the tip and either responds directly to the sender, or refers the information to someone who can help (24 hours a day/7 days a week).

A user sending a tip that results in a felony arrest and is eligible for a Crime Stoppers reward, will be given a phone number to call and collect up to a $2,000 reward through Crime Stoppers.

QuikTip Goes Live

For National Release

Jonesboro, Arkansas  (April 2014) – Relativity, Inc. is proud to announce the launch and nationwide release of a revolutionary app, QuikTip. QuikTip allows its user to anonymously send a message directly to the hosting agency, usually a 911 Dispatch Center, at any time.

QuikTip’s innovative, multi-platform, multi-point notification model, provides users with a simple and easy to use communication tool. This app has the potential to save lives by allowing the hosting organization access to first-hand information which quickly passes to the appropriate agency.

If someone is seen bullying, drinking underage, using drugs illegally or in harm’s way, then anyone with the QuikTip app can send a tip directly to the local hosting agency. The tip is then forwarded to law enforcement and addressed accordingly. Hosting agencies are able to chat directly with tip providers, but with the anonymous feature, the person sharing is not identifiable.

QuikTip provides young people an app in a medium they are familiar with, and provides them with anonymity. QuikTip provides additional functionality beyond that found in similar apps by allowing users to register for emergency notification (i.e. weather warnings, road closings, active shooter alerts, etc.).

Additionally, the hosting agency will be provided with a log so they can focus their prevention messages on the most prevalent problems in their area. QuikTip provides tip metrics and other reports.  For agencies using Relativity’s rps-CAD (Computer Aided Dispatch), the tips flow directly into the system for quick and easy assignment to officers.

Relativity Inc. is thrilled to announce that the first QuikTip installation goes live on Tuesday, April 15, 2014 and is hosted by the White County, AR 911 Dispatch Center.
