New APD Smartphone App Aims to Enhance Safety and Communication

Posted on by

The Albuquerque Police Department (APD) introduces its new smartphone app, Atlas One. Atlas One is designed to be more user-friendly and will provide an improved experience for community and police communication and interaction.

Users are asked to first delete the previous APD app from their phones, as it is no longer functional. Then, install the new app by searching for “Atlas One” in your app store, downloading it and creating an account.

You can report non-emergency situations from the app, send messages and receive notification replies to your sent messages. As always, report emergencies by calling 911. To learn more about the new APD app, visit: https://www.cabq.gov/311/connect-with-us/abq-apps/city-apps-listing/apdmobile-app

Posted on by

The Solid Waste Management Department and Keep Albuquerque Beautiful will partner with Quelab Makerspace and Fuse Makerspace to host this year’s Fixit Clinic on Saturday, February 24, 9:00 a.m. – 12:00 noon, at the Quelab Makerspace, 680 Haines Ave NW. Bring your broken household items and learn from our experienced coaches how they can be repaired. This is a free, all-ages event where people can learn how to assess, disassemble, and hopefully repair broken household items instead of sending them to the landfill. The acceptable items include bikes, small appliances, electronics, and sewing projects.

There is also need for skilled individuals who are handy and experienced in sewing, woodwork, leatherwork, electronics, small appliances, and jewelry, so please register if you have any of these skills.
