Still Seeing Old & Moldy Alerts
Since posting the review below, I have found another way to clear old (& no longer useful) alerts, remove then add the location covered by the alerts. This is slightly faster than deleting, downloading & reconfiguring the app.
January 28th, 2023
I am giving a one star because it appears the developer is not interested in fixing this problem as I see people have been pointing it out for several years. There should be a means (e. g. swipe left or an Edit function that people could select alerts to remove.) What value is there in in keeping alerts that have have expired long ago still in the list? The only way I could find to remove the old alerts is to delete this app (which removes all data associated with the app), install it again & reconfigure the app. This sounds like the horrible things I hear about PCs!

Can’t reliably see alerts
1. I get an alert notification
2. I click on the app to see the alert
3. The app shows 0 alerts - the windows are just blank for both list view and map view.
4. Eventually after I’ve closed and opened the app a bunch of times and toggled my location settings on/off I can see the alerts, but it’s not clear what causes the app to work again.
My local county government recommends this app for getting emergency alerts, so I am writing this review in hope that the devs can fix this issue because people are relying on this service to get crucial information. The only reason I downloaded this app was to be able to get emergency alerts, and if the app can’t perform that function reliably then I’m not sure what the point of the app would be.

Please remove outdated alerts
Why hasn’t this been fixed?
I use this app because it was recommended by our community services.
