Today, BlackLine GPS Inc. (“BlackLine”), a leader within the location-based services space, announces LonerMobile™, an application for GPS-enabled BlackBerry® smartphones. LonerMobile creates a multi-layered sphere of protection for mobile and lone workers.

“BlackLine’s LonerMobile application for BlackBerry smartphones expands our mobile worker protection product line, joining our industry-leading, dedicated LonerGPS device,” commented Patrick Rousseau, President and Co-founder of BlackLine GPS. Further adding “LonerMobile creates a completely new category of GPS functionality for mobile workers who rely on the BlackBerry platform.”

LonerMobile’s multi-layered protection ensures that employers are aware of their mobile worker’s safety via connection monitoring, confirmation of worker awareness, and location through GPS reporting. Supported by BlackLine’s Location Services Platform, the LonerMobile application notifies the employer through safety alerts communicated via text message, email, and BlackLine’s Web monitoring portal. Alert types include missed user check-in and loss of device communication. In the event that a mobile worker requires emergency assistance, a GPS location history enables the employer to quickly determine the mobile worker’s most recent location.

BlackLine’s hosted Location Services Platform provides customers with a full turn-key solution for worker protection. Deployment of BlackBerry smartphones with the LonerMobile application requires only a few minutes of installation, configuration, and deployment per device. A convenient Control Panel within the LonerMobile application provides quick access to a targeted feature-set, complete with password protection.
