"The app will facilitate access to all services provided by Delhi Police with just one touch," he said.

The mobile app -- currently available only for android users -- will act as an umbrella to all the previous Delhi police mobile applications, websites and services.

A police statement said the user-friendly mobile app "not only provides contact details of police officers (dealing with the public) but also has provision to disseminate information (documents, photographs, audio or video) to various predefined groups in police".
