User Reviews for Emergency: Alerts
Good app, but notifications far too repetitive
I like the app, and it provides useful information while I am using it. What I don’t like, however, is receiving 15 notifications a day. Yes, I’m well aware we’re having a heatwave. One alert would have done, not (quite literally) 15. I’ve had to turn notifications off entirely because they became so frequent and intrusive. This makes the app less helpful, because now I won’t be able to receive the rare, useful notification.
It was a wonderful app but not any more.
I don’t understand why there is a limit on the number of locations that can be monitored. I use to really like this app for three reasons. One, there was no limit on the locations you could monitor. And for a storm Spotter like myself, that was great. All other apps had limits on locations. Two, the alerts were full text bulletins. Three, the alerts were timely. I’ve removed this app, however, if the app is set back to the way it was, I’ll give it a try. I did like that the locations were in alphabetical order that was great and should be kept but there should be no limits on locations. If you don’t have an app to monitor alerts don’t put restrictions and tie peoples hands. Now please fix it back the way it was this is ridiculous.
Complete alert and emergency app
This app will monitor your moving location for emergencies that you have set up. You can also monitor the location of your family and friends or just select general locations. This app provides alerts for everything from tornado to air quality. Red Cross has also added a robust emergency training and quizzes to this app. Stay safe in grey skies and increase your preparedness in blue skies.
Jesus Christ ALIVEEEE the notifications
Okay, it’s a good weather app or whatever, it warns me of stuff I guess.The notifications, oh my god, I literally just deleted the app because it threw like a dozen notifications at me in seconds causing my phone to almost buzz its way off the stand. I’m sick of it, please for the love of god why? I don’t understand it’s just so many notifications with the exact same message, idk if I did something wrong but I don’t even care anymore, I’m only making this one star so maybe someone can see it and be warned, but I’m just done!!!! It’s just so many notifications and it’s been happening so much good golly ;w;
Great App; banners could be improved
Love this app! It gives me iPhone home screen banner alerts whenever any of my family members’ or friends’ areas are under weather threats. I love that! But the banners do not include the name of the monitored location. You have to click on the banner and launch the app just to find out which of your monitored locations the flood/storm/etc banner alert pertains to - a curious oversight. Nevertheless, i highly recommend this app.
Amazing helpful alerts
Where I live was hit by a devastating tornado last year and almost nobody in town received any weather alerts or if they did it was to late for them to take cover. There were many homes and lives lost that night. Since then we have all been searching for better apps to gives us alerts. I mean counting this one, I have 11 weather apps on my phone. That’s how traumatizing the events of last year were for myself and so many others. Out of all of my apps this is the ONLY ONE that sends me alerts consistently and early enough to prepare. If I do receive notifications from any of my other apps it is always well after I’ve already heard from this one. I have used our towns Facebook page to recommend this weather app to everyone so we can stay safe! ❤️
"Monitor all your important locations!" NOT
Looking for an app that can tell me realtime if anything is happening in the Azores Islands as I have a good deal of family there, as well as my fathers childhood home right on the coast of Sao Lourenço ... my fear has always been with hurricanes & tropical storms, tsunami, & volcanic activity ; & so I was referred to this app. Imagine my confusion, being told there was no results to my search while trying to add "Azores Islands" as a location to monitor ... they seem to include Madeira on the map, but no Azores... & everytime I tried to add a city in Portugal or Madeira (Lisbon, for example) it would give me Lisbon New York USA & all related search terms IN THE US -- & wouldn't allow me to monitor any part or portion of Portugal!!! What the heck?!! This app is pointless. I know all too much what's happening in the US, it's being shoved in my face from every direction; what I was looking for was information on THE WORLDS HAPPENINGS we don't hear about normally. Plz resolve this silly flaw
Is a Hurricane the same as a Tornado?
---Same Day1.]I wanted Tornado alerts not Hurricane alerts. Please make the notifications setting less clutter looking.2.]For the badges and all that’s great. But when I want to learn more about it you guys just make me retake the quiz again. I think once we earn it we should be allowed access to the connections we need in case of that emergency, more information on how to deal with it, and the option to retake the quiz (and possibly the correct answers, if we already of the badge).3.]For people with shaky hands or big fingers, please allow a dropdown or a type in function for the radius adjustment.4.]If we download another app for emergencies. Because I saw you guys have a separate one of tornadoes but no tornado alert notification in this general app. Could you allow us to share information with it? So we don’t have to re-add everything again. Just an account and a free (no account) import and export option.5.]Allow a change in measurements (metric & imperial) and temperature (Celsius & Fahrenheit). With the ability to monitor the miles and kilometers too.I will continue to update this.
Used to be useful…
…But has gotten intrusive and annoying lately. The app now has a gray bar on the locations screen that says: Critical Alerts DisabledLearn more to never miss an alert…That leads to unhelpful, irrelevant FAQs if you tap it, even though I have all alerts enabled and push notifications. There is no way to dismiss this gray bar or even understand why it is there.Furthermore, it made me choose a "home" location for no discernible reason when I opened the app today, even though I monitor several locations. Creepy and made more suspect when the app asks for camera permissions when you try to attach a screenshot in their feedback form, and fails to attach and disables the attachment button if camera permissions are not granted.Worst of all, the alert notifications do not display a location, so you have to tap them or open the app to find out where the incident is. A huge, unnecessary pain for people like me that monitor multiple locations, as the app encourages you to do.If I hear back from the development team I will update this review, but for now, three stars is generous.
App Support Link is a web page advertising their other apps!
The app changed from English to Spanish and there is no setting option to change it back and the link for App Support goes to a website that does nothing but list their other apps!If there is an emergency I don’t want to try and read the alert in a language I have a very small vocabulary in. Guess I should be glad they didn’t change it to one of the other predominant second languages in my state such as Russian, Chinese, or Vietnamese!I will be letting Apple know that the required App Support link is worthless as the developer is not providing any avenue to support.
