Yalerta

Among neighbours, verified

What's happening near you, now. Told by the people seeing it.

A robbery, a fight, a fire, an accident, a closed street, the metro at a standstill. If it's in front of you, you report it from where you are in ten seconds, with no one's personal data. Anyone within 500 metres finds out at once and confirms whether it's still there. Below that, what the 112 emergency service, city councils and other public services publish. And no noise: at most three alerts a day, except in emergencies.

What people are reporting right now

Nobody has reported anything right now

There are no reports from people right now. If you see something, tell it from the Yalerta app: what is happening and where, never who.

These reports go live at once, and the people nearby confirm or deny them. What each alert means.

How it works

  1. You see something

    You open Yalerta and choose what it is. You can only report what is in front of you: within 200 metres of where you are.

  2. You report it in ten seconds

    Category, the point on the map and, if you like, a short written or voice note. Never about people: no faces, no number plates, no descriptions. If a note talks about someone, it is not published.

  3. People nearby know at once

    Anyone within 500 metres gets the alert and says whether it's still there, whether it's over or whether it's false. That raises or lowers your trust as a reporter, which starts at 50%.

Every alert says who publishes it: Community, Official or Agent. And each one expires on its own. The rules, in eight lines.

And if the danger is to you: Ask for help

You hold the button down and, after five seconds, your position reaches the Yalerta people within 500 metres and your circle. Afterwards, one tap to say “I'm fine”. Before anything else, call 112. It's in the app.

Where each alert comes from

  • Community

    People who are on the spot and report it from the app, within 200 metres and with a verified e-mail. Whoever passes by confirms or denies it, and that raises or lowers the trust of the person who reported it.

  • Official

    The 112 emergency service, the police, city councils, AEMET, the DGT, the IGN and public transport. We publish it as it is, with its link, in under five minutes.

  • Agent

    Our system reads the free-text alerts of public bodies, keeps the fact and the place, removes any personal data and links to the original.

Every alert carries a category and a colour that says how serious it is. What each one means.
