The Ministry of National Security will launch the UNITE for Change app during Independence Day Gala celebrations on August 6.
The app is intended to be used as another avenue for the public to alert the police.
In the latest Force Orders, the High Command said it will be available for download during the Grand Gala. The High Command has also written to members of the Force, telling them to be ready to respond to those who use the app to make contact with the police.
The UNITE for Change app is designed to allow members of the public in distress to activate a signal which will relay their location to the police.
The police central command will respond to the signal and dispatch personnel to the location.
The High Command has announced that a simulation exercise demonstrating the use of the app and the response from law enforcers will be staged in all 19 police divisions on Thursday.
