Kick It Out has said it hopes an updated version of its free app that accommodates multimedia clips can help provide more evidence in the ongoing fight against discrimination.
Football's equality and inclusion organisation launched a second release of the app, which can be downloaded from Google Play and the App Store, on Thursday.
It provides users with the opportunity to attach video, photo and audio evidence to complaints, with the information being used to support investigations into abusive and discriminatory behaviour across football.
Using the Kick It Out app, first available from July 2013, allows people to make confidential reports of incidents they witness at a match.
The 2014-15 season saw a 59 percent increase in use of the app for complaints.
Anna Jonsson, the Reporting Officer for Kick It Out, said: "The updated version of the Kick It Out app allows complainants to provide us with a greater level of evidence to support investigations through the use of video, photos and audio.
"We have seen the app become one of the most prominent and popular mechanisms used to report incidents since its release in 2013, and took the decision last year to strengthen its level of functionality.
"We have particularly seen the use of video evidence play a key role in highlighting discriminatory behaviour, and it is important we give complainants the opportunity to bring this to our attention if they have the footage recorded.
"With the constant advances we are seeing in technology, it is important we make sure the app reflects these developments as we look to ensure appropriate action is taken against perpetrators in as many cases as we can."
