Why do I need to enable location and notifications?

Citizen protects you from danger with instant crime and emergency alerts. We generate hundreds of notifications per day, but we only send you the ones that are relevant to you (normally 1-2 per day, at most).

If you don't grant notifications and location permissions, we cannot send you these safety alerts. We continue to work hard to make sure you only receive the most relevant notifications.

For help troubleshooting these settings, see How do I enable notifications and location?
