Agency licensing
One license. Your whole department.
An annual agency license puts LOC8 on the iPhones your officers already carry. The agency pays, not each officer.
We set up your license
For the number of devices you need and the term you choose.
You get one invitation code
It is tied to your seat count. Each activated iPhone uses one seat.
Install it your way
From your private App Store link, or pushed by your IT team with device management.
Officers enter the code once
No sign-up, no paywall, no personal account.
Grow when you need
More officers? We raise your seat count. Nothing to reinstall.
Privacy and officer safety
Where officers are stays private.
No officer accounts, and no location history tied to anyone.
- No officer accounts
- No location history tied to officers
- Team Room positions never stored
- Pins and notes stay on the phone
Agency FAQ
What departments ask first.
Billing, rollout, data, and what officers see.
How is agency licensing billed?
LOC8 is licensed to your agency and billed to the agency once a year, never to each officer. Tell us how many devices you need and we will send pricing.
Do we need device management (MDM)?
No. Officers can download the app from your private App Store link and enter your agency's invitation code. If your IT team manages your iPhones, it can get the app through Apple Business Manager and install it with your device management instead.
Do officers need an account?
No. There is no LOC8 account. Officers enter your agency's invitation code once, then the app opens straight to their position. They never sign in or pay.
What data leaves the phone?
To show the address and cross street, the phone sends its coordinates with no officer's name or account attached. Activation checks your agency's license and seats. Team Room positions and chat pass through and are never stored. Pins and notes stay on the device, and no location history tied to an officer is kept. The Privacy Policy lists everything.
Does it work without signal?
Yes. Coordinates, the compass and saved pins work with no signal, and the address fills in when the phone reconnects. A licensed iPhone keeps working offline for up to 24 hours before it needs to check its license again.
Is the Apple Watch app included?
No. The agency version runs on iPhone and iPad, the devices officers already carry.
Can we try it first?
Yes. Create an agency account and start a free 7 day trial with 10 seats, no card needed. If you buy, your invitation code stays the same, so officers never enter a new one. Any officer can also try LOC8 on their own phone from the App Store.
Who builds LOC8?
A sworn, active law enforcement officer who built it for his own shifts. Agency requests go straight to him.
