Quick Alerting – with just one click

In an emergency situation, every second counts. The NICA Alarm App for schools enables alerting with just one click. A short countdown reliably protects against false alarms – without unnecessarily slowing down the process.

Critical Alarms

Critical alarms – reach even silent devices

In acute emergencies, the alarm is reliably played on iOS and Android devices – even when "Do Not Disturb" is activated. This ensures that important messages reach all people in time.

Piercing alarm sound

A loud, unmistakable alarm is played for critical messages.

Overrides "Do Not Disturb"

Overrides silent and "Do Not Disturb" mode on iOS and Android.

Optional silent alarms configurable

Normal alarms can be delivered without sound.

Built for real emergencies

Different alarm types depending on urgency and situation.

Individual instructions for each role

Role-based instructions & immediate measures

Not every person needs the same information. With NICA, teachers, administration, and other roles only receive the tasks that are relevant to them – clear, structured, and without distraction.

Tasks by role

Each person only sees the steps they are responsible for in an emergency.

Reduced information overload

Instead of lengthy checklists: few, clear tasks per role.

FFor different scenarios

Fire alarm, active shooter, or medical emergencies – tasks remain clear and manageable.

Perfect for schools

Clear and comprehensible instructions, tailored to the role of the staff.

Practical example: In the same active shooter alarm, teachers and the secretary each receive appropriate instructions on their phones.

Chat for inquiries

Quick clarification of uncertainties directly during the ongoing emergency.

Moderated broadcasts

Situation updates come centrally from school management or crisis team.

Better coordination

All parties stay on the same page – even in dynamic situations.

All messages remain traceably documented in the system.

Feedback

Real-time feedback – see immediately who has responded

With the NICA Alarm App for schools, you receive immediate feedback from the alerted persons. This way, you know exactly who has received the alarm and if anyone needs support.

„Who is at the assembly point?“

With a question, you can immediately see which classes have already arrived at the assembly point.

Request support

For example, query available first responders or staff nearby.

Quick responses

Responses are made directly in the app – without notes, calls, or phone chains.

Real-time analysis

Results are immediately evaluated and displayed centrally in the web interface.

Example scenario: Poll „Who is at the assembly point?“ with 15 alerted persons.

Individual alarm scenarios for each school

Every school works differently. With NICA, you define individual alarm scenarios – including triggers, roles, alarm types, checklists, and instructions. This way, the app digitally maps real processes 1:1.

Any number of scenarios

Create your own scenarios – e.g., active shooter, fire alarm, evacuation, or medical emergencies.

Critical or normal

Distinguish between critical alarms with penetration tone and normal messages.

Define goals & roles

Specify which roles and groups of people are informed in each scenario.

Checklists & instructions

Store specific tasks and checklists that are displayed step by step in the app.
