When a youngster disappears, it is the worst things that can happen to a family. Many kids are taken or disappear every day. A parent that knows how it feels will tell one about the despair and panic they feel if their young one disappears. Authorities have put many measures in place to try to mitigate the problem. One effective measure though is missing child apps that one can download on their mobile phones.

There is an application that any parent or guardian should have which is a pre-saved profile on their kid which consists of a photograph and other particulars such as hair color, weight and eye color of the loved one. If a loved one vanishes, and a search of the immediate surroundings has failed, the guardian or parent can alert the authorities. They can provide up to date information of their loved one to the authorities and request assistance.

The authorities that are notified will assist in the search immediately. It is well known that the initial 24 hours is an important time to search for a vanished individual. After that when the trail goes cold, it becomes very difficult.

Another cellphone application that is available named "Missing Children". It is an application that has the particulars of all the kids that have disappeared in any given area nationally. The "near me" function is included where it will pinpoint the original location of young ones which were reported lost within the surrounding local area where the user is. This application enhances a measure implemented by government namely "Amber Alert".

The government used the television and other sources of media to alert the nation of young ones that had been reported as lost. The system was not particularly user friendly because it required an individual to write the contact number and particulars of the lost kid down. In the chance that the kid is spotted, the person might not have the number available or might not be certain that the kid that they had spotted was indeed the lost youngster.

The lost kid might be spotted, but by not having the description handy, one could not be sure if this was the correct person. Many people would feel hesitant in calling emergency services if they spotted a person who could be one of the lost ones but were not certain of it. This cellphone application gives a user a list of kids that have been lost in the surrounding areas.

This mobile application provides a list of the youngsters that have vanished in the surrounding areas complete with a description and a photograph. If an individual spots the youngster that is reported as lost, one can immediately notify the authorities. There is a hot button on the profiles of each youth that one can touch and the call will be diverted directly to the person in charge of that case.

This method is much easier to use and much faster. One needs only to look at the profiles when in an area and if a person matching the description of the lost youngster is spotted, the authorities can be there in minutes. Missing Child Apps have become a valuable tool in the search for vanished young ones and every citizen should have at least one or other application on their phones so that in the event of a lost kid being spotted, the authorities can be notified in the shortest amount of time.
