### 1/5 — Can't even sign up

*2025-02-24*

Was told I needed to have this app for an upcoming trip. I can't even sign up. App is stuck on sign in page?

### 2/5 — Can’t get it started

*2023-05-29*

I can’t use it because it won’t fit my screen. The log-in button is located below the screen and the app will not let me scroll down.

### 4/5 — Beginner

*2022-08-07*

It is a good app for people who are looking for a simple application to check how safe the city they’re visiting is.

### 1/5 — Politically-Motivated Alerts

*2022-03-31*

Extremely disappointed using this app - it does not mention anything when terrorist attacks breaks out, but sends alert when a far-right politician visits the Temple Mount. Playing with words whitewashing terrorists and blame on the victims. How can this be recommended by institutions?

### 3/5 — Could be better

*2018-12-03*

This app has the potential to be beneficial but it falls short. It’s response to touch is slow and the location info section does not work. I will likely delete this app.
