«Missing Alert App» The new innovative application for the recovery of missing adults


The new free mobile application Missing Alert App is now available to the public, actively supporting the swift location of missing persons in Greece. The advanced application, which is designed and developed by COSMOTE on behalf of the Organization "The Smile of the Child", enables all citizens to contribute to the search of missing persons in real time. Furthermore, it may be used to protect relatives – children, as well as adults – who are at high risk of going missing, thus broadening the social circle of support.

By downloading the app on their mobile phone -initially via Google Play - users may:

Receive information about the current cases of missing children and adults, as well as their progress in real time,
Support the work of the Organization "The Smile of the Child", by providing information about a case via chat or telephone wherever they are and at any time,
Search for missing persons based on different criteria (e.g. date of disappearance, distance from themselves),
Report missing people through their personal social media, thus mobilizing other volunteers,
Protect their loved ones, who belong to vulnerable groups and/or are at high risk of going missing (e.g. due to dementia, mental health conditions etc.), by posting their personal data in the app. Thus, they proactively secure that in any potential incident, the search will start without any delay.
The app is managed by the specialized team of “The Smile of the Child”, which is responsible for any information, evaluating it to make the most of the potential for the immediate recovery of the missing person.

COSMOTE provides technological solutions and develops innovative applications to create a better world for all. In this context, COSMOTE has been continuously supporting the significant work of the “The Smile of the Child”, offering telecommunication services, infrastructure and tech solutions that assist the Organization in its difficult task of caring for children and addressing missing persons cases in Greece.

"The Smile of the Child" has managed more than 1,600 cases of disappearances of minors in its more than 24 years of operation. In addition, since January 2020, after signing an Agreement of Cooperation with the Ministry of Civil Protection, the Organization has conducted more than 23 investigations to recover adults (18 to 60 years old) belonging to vulnerable or high-risk groups.
