Ansimi: Seoul City Safety Service
Ansimi is a free Android app developed by 서울특별시, the Seoul Metropolitan Government. It is a safety service designed to protect the citizens of Seoul from crimes and accidents through location tracking. With Ansimi, users can register for safety services from their homes or vulnerable areas, allowing them to report emergencies and receive assistance quickly. The app also provides location tracking through the CCTV control center, automatically identifying the nearest CCTV when an emergency report occurs. The control center then disseminates the information to the police officer in charge, ensuring a swift response.
It is important to note that the Seoul Metropolitan Government does not manage the incidents themselves, but rather provides a platform for citizens to report emergencies and receive assistance. Ansimi also collects subscribers' phone numbers and guardian contacts for quick communication and service requests. Text services are provided to registered guardians outside of Seoul. However, it is crucial to use the app responsibly, as false emergency reports and misuse of personal information can lead to legal consequences.
Please note that some features may not be supported depending on the smartphone specifications, and the app consumes a significant amount of battery when running in the background. If not in use, it is recommended to shut down the app completely. For any inquiries or feedback, users can contact the Women's Policy Officer at
