There's an app where you can now report ICE in your area called ICE Block

It's only for apple store though, they said there's no legitimate android app as android stores device ids with push notifications. But it's still a good app if anyone wants to check if they can download it on their phone. Thought I'd share, love the idea.

They can offer an Android APK on their website without putting it through the Google Play Store, though.

@LordShadowfire I wonder if I should contact them and run that idea by them because that would be nice and help reach a more broader range of people. I feel like the app is a good idea but limited. Hopefully people copy and find a way around androids thing of storing phone IDs

@LordShadowfire Or maybe you can email them too

@SatanBurger I'm absolutely going to.

@LordShadowfire That's great, let me know if they get back to you. That would be great

@SatanBurger I filled out their support thingy.

@LordShadowfire Maybe they'll get back to you who knows. It would be nice, I'd like to download it myself. I would on other platforms but the agency said that those are scams.
@LordShadowfire keeping it out of the store wouldn't help with privacy issues around notifications though. The best they could do is offer an overview when opening the app and not send notifications when ICE is spotted, but I'm not sure how useful that would be. Time is already pressing if you get informed immediately. If you don't notice the warning until 10 minutes later, you're probably already in the back of a white van.
