It’s available by searching for “HCSOTip” in both phones’ app marketplaces.
The sheriff’s office also has two more ways to send crime tips. One is by text message; the other can be done via the department’s website, www.hennepinsheriff.org
Several agencies around the country have already rolled out similar apps.
