Munich Re, US, and the Insurance Institute for Business & Ģý Safety (IBHS) have launched a new “app” designed to help homeowners build safer, stronger structures in the face of increasing severe weather events.

FORTIFIED Ģý™ On the Go is an interactive tablet app available for free download from the iTunes Store. It walks homeowners, contractors and architects through the home strengthening process, providing information based on their specific input. The information includes videos, animations, and technical specifications for building and retrofitting single family homes.

Information in the app is based on IBHS’ FORTIFIED Ģý™ program, which is recognized as the national standard in resilient construction.
