Frequently Asked Questions

Can someone not affiliated with Pace University download the app?
You must be a Pace University student, staff, or faculty member in order to download and log into the app. You will only have to log in once, the first time you download the app. Your username and password are the same that you use for any Pace University system.

How much does it cost to download the app?
The app is available to download for free.

Who can see my incident report?
After submitting an incident report for your specific campus, it is sent to the Pace University security coordinators at that respective campus.

How will I be contacted after I submit my incident report?
A Pace University security coordinator will contact you back within 24-48hrs after you submit the report. They will contact you either by phone or email. If you have a preference for how they should contact you, please write it in the incident description field.

How do I receive safety notifications on the app?
In order to receive safety notifications on the app, you must allow the app to send you push notifications. If you don't allow this at your initial downloading of the app, you can always change your preferences to allow push notifications. On your mobile phone, go to Settings > Notifications > Pace Safe > Allow Notifications.

How will I know if safety notifications are working?
While you can always check your phone settings to check if you have allowed notifications, Pace University performs a routine test of the emergency notification system one time per semester (two times per year). Whenever an emergency notification is sent through the Pace Alert system, a push notification will also go through to the PaceSafe app. It is during these tests that you can confirm whether your safety notifications on the app are working.
