ALERT Notification Change

 For several years, the Marietta Police Department has utilized a push-alert notification system to send text messages and emails to keep our community updated about road closures as well as critical incidents.  On January 1, 2025, we will be upgrading from the existing system (Nixle) to this new Marietta PD app. 

Developed by tip411, the Marietta PD app puts a powerful new crime-fighting tool into the hands of our residents and business owners.  Our community members will now be able to find information, receive alerts, and send anonymous tips to us from any smartphone.  The tips can include photos as well as video files.  The Marietta PD app and tip411 anonymous text a tip system are 100% anonymous, as the technology removes all identifying information before police see the tips and there is no way to identify the sender.  Officers viewing the tip can reply back to create an anonymous two-way conversation.  Individuals without a smartphone can still share information with MPD by sending an anonymous text tip via cell phone by texting keyword MARIETTAPD and their message/tip to 847411 (tip411).

The City of Marietta was recently awarded first place in the prestigious 2024 Digital Cities Survey by the Center for Digital Government (CDG) for its innovative technology standards and services. To receive this honor, the City competed against other municipalities across the nation in the “Up to 75,000 Population” category.  The implementation of this new Marietta PD app is just one more way our city is working to embrace new technology to better serve our community.

Thank you for choosing to partner with MPD!
