HOW TO USE THE APP:
To Record:
Simply open the app and hit the record button at the top of the screen and the application will use your phone’s camera to record both audio and video. To stop recording, simply shake the phone or manually press the ‘click to stop’ button. This video is automatically sent to the ACLU of North Carolina as soon as you stop recording.
After each recording you will be prompted to fill out a short incident report. You can bypass the incident report by simply pressing cancel; however, we encourage you to fill it out so we can learn more about what you saw. Required fields in the incident report are marked ‘required.’ If you are unsure of the information asked in the incident report, simply mark ‘unsure’. Finally, press the ‘submit the incident report button’ to send your incident report to the ACLU of North Carolina.
To Witness:
This feature allows you to know if people around you are getting stopped by the police. When others in your area use Mobile Justice, you will get a message reporting where the police stop is happening. If the dot is green, it means the ‘witness’ feature is activated. If the dot is red it means the ‘witness’ feature is not activated and you will not receive reports on where police activity is happening. This feature is especially useful for community groups who monitor police activity. Be sure to go to “my settings” to turn on “broadcast my location” in order for the ‘witness’ function to operate.
To Report:
This function allows you to access the incident report. You can use this function to report a police interaction you saw or experienced, even if you didn’t film it. Be sure to hit the ‘submit’ incident report button so that your responses are sent to the ACLU of North Carolina.
Keep up-to-date on local and statewide actions and events hosted by the ACLU.

This app might be good for people who might want to harm the police. It gives the location of car stops and incident locations that does not need to be known by civilians who have no business showing up at the scene of an incident. This will only cause problems and is a safety concern for law enforcement. Bad idea!!!
You have rights when dealing with the police. You have the right to remain silent. You have the right to an attorney. You have a right to record the police, provided your recording does not cause interference with the police performance of their duties. This app is set up so that if you witness police misconduct, you have the ability to report it to the NC chapter of the ACLU. It is an app whose existence is necessary, but I also wish I will never have to use.
It would be a 5 star app seeing how this is very needed this day in age, but I live in Virginia & the closes one the App has is Nc
Please make a version for Every state. Brutality is at an all time high. South Carolina next please!
Several months ago, I tried this app but it did not work so I deleted it. Today I tried it again. It got stuck in one page and there was no way to move on so ACLU -NC please fix and re-test with several of your staff then advise your members. This would be a great idea...if only it worked! Dang! Deleting again!!!!
I see some people were having trouble stopping the recording. That function works fine for me, either by touching the "stop" button, touching the screen anywhere or by shaking. If you are having that problem try deleting and reinstalling the app.
