BlackLine GPS today announces LonerMobile, an application for GPS-enabled BlackBerry smartphones. LonerMobile creates a multi-layered sphere of protection for mobile and lone workers.

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 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.”
