Thanks to the SilentPartner App available for both Android and iOS mobile operating systems, local police forces will be able to easily and digitally document all of the above information thanks to its built in recorder, data capture, caller ID, and GPS both at the start and the end of calls.
With the information recorded, it becomes significantly easier to file a report on the incident, and in turn, close the case for the accident. For both law enforcement and drivers involved in an accident waiting to complete an insurance claim, closing a police report is a strenuous process that can often take up to seven days, longer than both parties would like. With the smartphone recording app SilentPartner, these reports can be expedited and law enforcement can get the reports to civilians quicker, which makes for happier constituents.

These findings all point to SilentPartner’s ability to not only collect the information necessary to close out cases quickly, but also to collect that information with more accuracy and a higher degree of transparency.

It can be installed as a test run on only one phone. Once you’re happy with the results and others want to have SilentPartner on their smartphone too, it can be scaled up and installed on as many phones as you would like.
