Bali Police is launching an app to make themselves more accessible in the event of a crime, traffic accident, emergency, or any other situation where you would need to get in touch with the police.

Instead of going all the way to a police station, app users can directly submit reports to police and can even track the progress of their reports through the app, according to Bali Police Information Technology Commissioner, I Gusti Gede Harnawa Pasimpangan.

At the moment, the app, called ‘Salak Bali’ (Bali Police Service Application System), doesn’t appear to be available for Apple users in Indonesia, but can be found in the Android store.

Hopefully that will change, as Pasimpangan just said on Tuesday that the app hadn’t even officially launched (though Coconuts Bali was able to access it in the Android store).

“Right now, we are just socializing the app, we haven’t launched yet,” he explained.
