Is Citizen free?

The core Citizen app is and will always be free. You can download and use Citizen at no charge to access our incident coverage and receive safety alerts about incidents going on near you.

We offer premium, opt-in features, known as Citizen Protect, at a charge of $19.99/mo after a 30 day free trial. With Citizen Protect, you can connect to a trained Citizen Agent if you're in an emergency or feel unsafe. For more on our Citizen Protect feature and the ways our Protect Agents can help you, please see our website: https://citizen.com/protect
