We are excited to announce the release of the AmCON Notification System Mobile App! The ability to send out INSTANT alerts and AmCON notifications to the AmRRON Network is an invaluable tool!
Below you will find the two Download Instruction options, AmCON Mobile App Zip File, Identification Guide and the FAQ documents (PDF).
We will be sending out test alerts weekly through the month of June to demonstrate the app, and then we will conduct AmCON system tests once a month.
The app is available ONLY for Android at this time. We are working double time to get the app functional on Apple devices.
Note: This app does not store any personal or location information. The ONLY information that appears is the carrier (Verizon, Sprint, etc.) and the model (LG3442, etc.).
The app is still in the beginning stages and there will be more updates, improvements and added features.
AmRRON CORPS MEMBERS: This app does not apply since you have access to the AmRRON Corps App available on the AmRRON Corps website .

Identification Guide for the AmRRON Mobile App
The AmCON Notification application for mobile devices contains several image and audio files for varying purposes, to include regularly-scheduled testing, emergency training exercises, and real-world disaster communications notifications. This guide will help you familiarize yourself with these so you will recognize them when you see them. A notification may be sent with only an image banner, or an accompanying pre-recorded audio file, or both.
Additional Information:
Andriod 4.0 or newer necessary to install the app
The instructions and/or audio file will play when you open the notification.
Once you open a notification, it goes away after you close the app, and you can’t go back to read it again.
We’re working on an archival system so you can review previous notifications.
Audio File Example Below:
First AmCON Test Notification was sent on 06/08/2015 See Below:
Following all the instructions and initializing the install using the File Commander File Manager I get an error message (Parse Error: There is a problem parsing the package) and goes no further with the install. I’m wondering if perhaps my Android operating system is not compatible? Could this be the problem?
Samsung Galexy S (Android v 2.3.6)
I will update the post. Per the developer, the app is only available for 4.0 or newer.
Well that explains it, I’v been meaning to upgrade my phone and now is as good a time as ever. Thanks

I downloaded the app it seemed to install fine, but it only shows a banner for AmCon Notification System when I open it, is this normal or am I missing installing something?
That’s normal. Exactly what it’s supposed to look like at this time. We’re doing more developing on the App with many more features on the way.
Do you know when the AmCON app will be released for the iPhone?
There was a delay on the Iphone app due to a re-alignment of the project team. We are moving full steam ahead. As of right now, the timeline is beginning of September (that is just a rough estimate). Thank you for following up! We are looking forward to getting the Iphone users set up with the AmRRON App!
Is this app gone? I don’t see it in the playstore.
I tried to download it off the PC and the mobile app. Nothing works, I have the compatible phone. Any suggestions on how to get this to load directly from the app-store or similar as the other methods just don’t seem to work?
The App isn’t available at the app stores, Completely gapped and exclusive. Have never had anyone have the problem you’re describing, so let me forward your question to the App Developer. -JJS
Any info on the release of the Amcon app for the iPhone?
It’s been 2 years since the release of the AMCON app. Do you have any idea when the iPhone will have access to the AMCON system??
Any idea when if ever AMCON app will be out on iPhone? There are a few of us members waiting for this.
Thanks
