The Information & eGovernment Authority (iGA) has called on all citizens and residents to activate the alerts and sirens feature available on the “MyGov” app, as part of precautionary civil protection measures to enhance public safety. This feature aims to ensure that notifications issued by the relevant official authorities reach the public during emergencies.

The iGA emphasized that the alerts and sirens feature on the “MyGov” app serves as an effective digital channel in times of emergency to boost individual readiness and raise community awareness. It noted that this feature complements an integrated system for sending messages and alerts through multiple communication channels, ensuring that official information and instructions reach the widest possible audience and enhancing community response efficiency under all circumstances.

To benefit from this service, the iGA explained that users need to update the “MyGov” app to the latest version via official stores on iOS, Android, and Huawei devices, and activate the “General Notifications” option within the app’s settings. Citizens and residents can download the “MyGov” app by visiting the eGovernment App Store at bahrain. bh/apps.
