Features & Capabilities

BART Watch is a free security app that enables riders to discreetly report suspicious activity to BART Police. It supports sending photos, text messages, and location details directly from the home screen, with two quick options: Report a Problem and Call BART Police. The app works offline by storing reports and sending them when connectivity returns, and it prioritizes speed by sending text before photos.

Additional features include BOLO alerts for persons of interest, with guidance to call 911 for immediate danger and discreet reporting to BART Police. The tool embodies the 'See something, Say something' ethos to help keep BART safe.

User Reviews

Users praise BART Watch for quick police responses and its usefulness as a safety-reporting tool, often calling it indispensable. However, recurring drawbacks include a cumbersome reporting flow, photo upload failures, transmission issues, and inconsistent or slow officer responses. Privacy concerns and excessive data requests further impact effectiveness. Overall, the app is valued for safety and rapid action, but usability and reliability gaps can hinder urgent-use experiences.

Pros

Prompt responses from BART police to reports.
The app provides an easy, quick way to report incidents.
Indispensable and highly valued by riders for safety.
Reports often lead to officer action (tickets/warnings) and sometimes public announcements.
Effective for reporting suspicious or dangerous behavior, including emergencies.

Cons

Reporting flow is time-consuming and cumbersome; hard to enter quickly.
Photo uploads are unreliable or fail to attach.
Inconsistent or slow police response; some reports receive little or no action.
Reports sometimes do not transmit or have transmission issues despite good connectivity.
Privacy concerns and excessive data requests (gender, clothing, race) with manual location entry; lack of automatic prioritization for urgent incidents.

Recent reviews

BART responded very quickly to an incident on the train. First time I used the app and I was impressed with the response!

BART usually responds to reports made here which is good. However it’s difficult to make a report. It takes forever to enter the info quickly. I wish i could just enter the car number and write the report.
