ARGOS, Ind. -- The Town of Argos announced the launch of a mobile app officials say is designed to provide residents with convenient access to important information, services, events, and community updates.

Mark VanDerWeele, Development Director of Argos states "we are excited for the Discover Argos app as a valuable tool to connect with the community and make it easier for everyone to stay informed and engaged with what's happening."

Officials say the app, called Discover Argos, includes features like an event calendar, real-time notifications on important announcements, town directory, online bill pay, employment opportunities, and more.

"One neat feature is the ability to create an account which allows the user to select the type of notification(s) they receive. For instance, those living in town might want to receive notifications on street repair or trash pickup, while those that live outside of the area that attend our events might want to only receive alerts on upcoming events,” said VanDerWeele.

The app is free to download and use. Just search Discover Argos in the App Store or Google Play.
