### 2/5 — Changed to emergencyWA app

*2026-05-14, version 1.3.6*

I really liked this app until they changed it so you have to create an account and sign in. For me I cannot be bothered with yet another account for something.

### 2/5 — Was great until excepted to sign in each time the app updates

*2025-12-14, version 1.3.6*

Painful when you are away from home and required to sign in again and can not remember my password. Also live in high risk bush fire region and when not getting alerts because they have an update. Poor for an alert system
Now unable to sign in on my iPad after update and no support available

### 2/5 — Won’t load

*2025-07-20, version 1.3.6*

Takes forever for the app to open - that’s if it even opens at all. Needs fixing asap - super annoying

### 1/5 — No update in 4 yrs?

*2025-07-05, version 1.3.6*

What’s the point of having an app that hasn’t been updated in 4 years?!  It’s slow as, never remembers watch zones and times out.

### 3/5 — Ok but app logs me out randomly

*2025-03-22, version 1.3.6*

Useful app but I wish you could set preferences to not see certain alarms. Also the app logs me out randomly.

### 3/5 — Not working

*2025-01-27, version 1.3.6*

This has been the best app so far but stopped working 10 days ago

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2024-12-21, version 1.3.6*

I've been using this app for some time & I find it excellent, it warns me of anything happening in my watch zone & I've not had any issues with it.

### 2/5 — Don’t do update

*2024-12-01, version 1.3.6*

Since last update the app just freezes and won’t load - times out

### 2/5 — Not Up To Date

*2024-11-19, version 1.3.6*

Map is not always up to date, you can miss out on alerts and notifications. Sometimes it won’t update for hours. Besides that when it’s working it’s a good app for getting notifications about incidents in your area.

### 2/5 — App has issues

*2024-10-06, version 1.3.6*

I always seem to get logged out and this time around I can’t even login/register again to uses it. Very unfortunate as there’s currently fires near me and I can’t even get on to check.
I will say when the app is functioning I do find it useful, it’s just a same that’s rarely.
