There's an app for just about everything, and that includes a police department in one north suburb.

The Evanston Police Department has a new app, said to be an innovative way for the police department to connect with Evanston residents and visitors. Through the app, users can submit a tip, commend an officer, find a press release and more.

The app was developed by ThePoliceApp.com, a brand of OCV, LLC., which specializes in mobile app development for police departments and public safety organizations across the country.

The app is available to download for free in the App Store and Google Play by searching "Evanston Police Department IL."
