Remember Apple’s old “There’s an App for That” ad from 2009? We may have finally hit a point where there really is an app for everything.
A private security service called Protector just hit the App Store this week. People are calling it “Uber with guns.”
For $1,000, you can have an armed guard pick you up and shuttle you around town in an Escalade for five hours. They’re either retired law enforcement, or active duty.
The app was announced last year. But you might have heard about it last month when they did a video showing what COULD have happened if the gunned-down healthcare CEO had the app.
It’s only available in New York and L.A. for now. There’s a $129 annual fee, and prices START at $1,000. You can pay more to protect multiple people or have a motorcade with up to three Escalades.
