Power Failure & Outage Alarm User Reviews

Thank you!

Hi ! I would like to thank you for this wonderful tool that I use to supplement my other survival devices. I live alone and I am an LVAD patient. I had to purchase a generator to supply me with power in case mine goes out . I have to be hooked to electricity 24/7 in one way or another. This alarm gives me comfort and I am able to sleep a little better knowing it will wake me up in case my power goes off . For me that’s a life or death situation. Thank you for this and I hope to be able too use more of its functions in the near future. God bless you all !

No sound at all

There is no sound from this app it’s all active as my iPhone 13 sound set to on as the app sound not working, but why after testing?

Peace of mind app

Works great and you can sleep like a baby knowing you will be woken up if the power goes out and have time to fire up the generator before the basement floods. Just make sure you have the volume on your device turned up before you fall asleep.

Outage alert is awesome

Does app his excellent features. Features and options are convenient and useful. I like it!

Just what I needed

We had some chicken eggs in the incubator and needed to move them to a backup power source if we lost power at night

Extraneous Noise

LOVE the app but don’t need to hear it ticking like a loud clock while it’s monitoring! Discovered when you pay the one time only .99, that you have an option of turning that sound off… nice!

Power hungry

Useless.

Great app with some small recommendations

1. I love this service is a very fair one time payment.
2. This app allows you to use commonly used devices you already own to monitor power outages.
3. I love the simplicity of the app.

We are expecting power outages from storms soon and I want this app to give me a heads up when a outage occurs while i am sleeping. This would allow me to go start the generator and get heat going in the house as opposed to waiting a couple hours and waking up to a very cold house.

Great idea and is app seems perfect for the task.

I wish there were some additional features.
1. Adding multiple email addresses or phone numbers for txt messaging that way multiple people could be alerted.

1.1 If it included location of the phone or electrical device, and time stamp power off. And notify when power is reconnected and time stamp power on, this would be great as well. The ultimate hope is to monitor power outages. Wether I am asleep or way from the property.

2. Being able to add additional alert tones would be a great option.

So far, that’s all I can think of. :)

Promising!

The UI is really pleasant and this app has basically everything you’d expect. I only thought of a simple yet very useful addition, could you please add an option for playing an alarm when the power comes back on?
I’m in Ukraine right now, and personally I don’t have much use for an alarm for when power is off, however if I had an option for a “Power is back on!” alarm, I feel like I could get much more work done, since my sleep schedule kind of merged with the planned power outages that we have right now.
When the power cones back on, I have a million tasks to do (from laundry to cooking and work on my computer), so that kind of alarm would be a lifesaver. Thank you for reading!

Was not free.

I got this app that said it was free but I was charged $39.99. Money was taken from my account. I would like a refund. This is a scam. No where does it say I would be charged for this app.
