Hello All,
I remember hearing about a mobile app through which you can report incidences on the Camino. Not sure if it's a Camino thing or a Spain thing in general. Anyone that can point me in the right direction?

I think you mean the AlertCops app mentioned in this thread.

YES! Thanks Bradypus. Here's the link for anyone who is interested. Not a bad idea to have this installed on your phone. https://www.euroweeklynews.com/2019/03/01/have-you-got-alertcops/#.XkuxKShKhPY

You should always delete the version of alert cops that you have and reinstall it before you start a new camino because that is the only way to update the app. I read that on their website this morning.
