User reviews

If phone is on desk or pocket I don’t know there’s an alert

I get no audible notifications. I'll look at my phone and realize I got an alert an hour or two ago as a push notification, but with no sound I never notice them in a timely manner. Cannot locate any settings to ensure that I receive an alert.

Push Notifications Don’t Work

Currently utilizing an IPhone and the push notifications do not send if the device is locked. All settings are properly configured to allow notifications and based on other reviews this has been a problem for years. Not very helpful in an emergency.

Useless

The app doesn’t sync with email and doesn’t actually alert. Even with notifications turned on and an email listed, I have to go to the app to see if there’s an alert, which defeats its whole purpose. Once I go to the app, it suddenly populates all the alerts. I also can’t clear the former notifications once I go to the app. It’s really not a useful app.
