SHALIMAR, Fla. — Sheriff Eric Aden has announced the release of a smartphone application for the Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office.

The new app will serve as a new way for the OCSO to connect with residents and visitors, providing information quickly and efficiently to anyone with a smartphone.

“We wanted to take advantage of this efficient way to reach and serve the public and there’s no better way than through their smartphones, which everyone typically has readily available to them all the time,” said Aden.

“If you want to see if someone has a warrant or who we’ve arrested in the past week, it’s all right there — with much, much, more.”
