Users can send live images and videos to election officials through the app.Election officials say the complainant will be given an action taken report within 100 minutes of the complaint being reported. However, two days after the schedule of the Lok Sabha elections was announced, some people say the app is not fully active.Mayur Patil, a private employee, told TOI that he downloaded cVIGIL on Monday evening. The app can be used on any android mobile phone (Jellybean and above) equipped with a camera and good internet.
