Motorola’s Moto Alert app keeps you connected with the people you care about

If you focused too hard on Motorola’s new and improved handsets, you most likely missed Moto Alert, the company’s newest Android app. Currently exclusive to the Moto E, and in the vein of Google Latitude, this new software is designed to keep you in touch with your close group of friends. The app lets you set up periodic alerts that help the people you care about track your whereabouts. Kind of creepy? Maybe, but it could come in handy if you find yourself in a pinch. Lastly, the app features specific locations like home, work or school that automatically notify your stalkers loved ones of your departure and arrival.

Since you most likely don’t own a Moto E just yet, consider this a heads up. However, if you know a guy who knows a guy and have managed to get the budget-friendly smartphone early, you can download Moto Alert from Google Play right now.
