### 3/5 — It’s ok

It’s actually just a flashing light, there’s no sound, but it’s still good

### 4/5 — Gut

### 4/5 — Bien

*2013-07-13*

Faut bien regarder a quoi ça sert !

### 3/5 — quit useful !

*2012-09-06, version 1.2*

It's more perfect if the alarm can be made louder! Over all! Keep up the good work guys! （＾ν＾）

### 4/5 — Ok

*2012-07-20, version 1.2*

What's wrong with it?!

### 4/5 — This great! Thanks!

*2012-05-05, version 1.2*

Your application is great! But can u still improve/change the 'i and home' button into something that's not easily detected? Hoping for the updates! Cheers! :)

### 1/5 — Bad

*2011-02-01, version 1.2*

Can not stop alarm!!!!!!

### 1/5 — Never get this app

*2011-01-21, version 1.2*

Don't waste your time

### 1/5 — So ein sch---

*2010-12-30, version 1.2*

Eigentlich sollte man 0 Sterne geben. Funktioniert überhaupt nicht.Alarm geht nur an wenn man in die Mitte tippt und wenn man wieder in die Mitte tippt wieder aus.        :(((((((

### 4/5 — Seems OK

*2010-09-16, version 0*

Bought this incase I find myself in a hotel room with a strange girl (so I'm an optimist) working on the assumption she might want to relieve me if my iPhone while I'm asleep. Or what about someone trying to have a sneaky peak at ya messages. Think it needs to be a tad more sensitive. Also would be good if you could set it to be active in the background or if phone sits still for a certain amount of time. Forget the attack protection bit but could be made perfect for anti theft or pick pocket. Will change to 5 stars if that happens and would gladly pay

### 1/5 — K

*2010-09-04, version 0*

Oh oh hold on leme open the app, hen you may resume attacking me. Eh...

### 2/5 — Ummm.

*2010-06-26, version 0*

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2016-04-18, version 1.2*

I just downloaded this app today, tried to open it for the first time but it crashed. Then I tried re-opening it for another time, then another, and for the fourth time, it still crashed. Please fix app, I would like to try it out. Thanks!

### 1/5 — 開けない

*2016-02-15*

### 1/5 — Doesn't scare a cat

*2013-12-26, version 1.2*

So, I downloaded this thinking I'd use it as an irritation if (when) my cat jumps on the counter while cooking; and then maybe have it ready if I got into a sticky situation and wanted a deterrent. Nope, already uninstalled. It didn't even bother my cat.

### 1/5 — 起動しなくてもできたらいい！

*2012-12-26*

☆1も あげたくないくらいだ！
インストール後 1分で削除した。
わざわざこのアプリを起動してたら、
落とさないだろ！

### 1/5 — This comment is for useless

*2012-11-09, version 1.2*

1st of all the app is for u the push the button to get attention or scare off your attacker. 2nd the proper way to spell is (know) not as you did (no). It's no wonder u don't know how to use the app! I agree its stupid but nothing compared to how stupid your comment is!!!!!!

### 1/5 — Dumb app

*2012-01-01, version 1.2*

You people seriously think this app is going to save your life maybe if this was voice activated maybe it would but as it stands you still have to spend time unlocking phone/iPod find the app and turn it on by that time the person could be gone. I don't recommend this app at all.

### 1/5 — Useless

Der Alarmknopf schlechthin.

### 5/5 — Lovers gonna love

*2015-02-22, version 1.2*

Have had this cute app for over 4 years. I use as the rear light on my bike and as a warning light for cars when I go running. I would get it again, any day.

### 5/5 — Muy buena

*2013-06-07, version 1.2*

Recomiendo esta app.

### 5/5 — Simple and perfect

*2013-03-22, version 1.2*

I'm a diabetic and am always afraid I will go hypoglycemic which can cause an inability to articulate and the ability to perform only simple functions sluggishly. This is perfect to let someone know I need help without having to push a lot of buttons--just the icon.  Well done, folks.

### 5/5 — Haters gunna hate

*2013-03-13, version 1.2*

:)

### 5/5 — Gd tool to have for travelers!

*2013-02-25, version 1.2*

A gd tool - totally agree- for travel like in yr hotel room to prevent intruders to room ! Prop it against door or window.Love it and for free tool! 
Suggest cld add different alarm sounds or even a more loud pitching sound. 
Keep up gd work!

### 5/5 — 

*2010-02-10, version 0*

Recent update has elevated this app to a whole new HA!mazing level. They have just added a feature that let's the alarm spontaneously alert the local police department with information about your location and your personal description! Ha!mazingI have also noticed that it comes with an option that allows you to take a picture of the asaillant without even taking the phone out of your pocket, holster or wherever else you mightve put it before the attack.
To make it even more Ha!mazing, it now comes pre-loaded with pepper spray that can bring the attacker down without you even lifting a finger!
Case in point: I was listening to the latest news recently on nion news network when suddenly. The news made me so sad that I started ing. I put my head between my laps and wept!. All of a sudden my cellphone let out this crazy alarm! I was like holy . What the hll!  I quickly turned around and noticed a man with a  in his hand pointed to my !  He yelled! "your life or your money!" I quietly replied: "take my life and leave my money", because I can't imagine living without my freaqui money. Just as he was about to pull the trigger, there were everywhere. As he tried to run, I noticed splatter of pepper spray from my shirt pocket where my cellphone was. In seconds he was down, handcuffed and taken awayto jail!
Thanks to this app! Without it, who knows what wouldve HA!ppened
So in one word, this app is HA!mazing!
