Tuesday 31 July 2012 | 14:36 CET | News
The City of London Police has launched a new smartphone app in time for the start of the 2012 Olympic Games. Researched by the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) and developed jointly with the force, this app is free to download from the Apple App Store and allows the the City of London Police to share real-time information with people.
