Crash issues

App keeps crashing every time I add an update — whether I add my info (address, email, etc) or add an institution. So, I can’t seem to add my address. I was able to follow my city government and got a text that I was signed up for alerts. Here’s hoping this app was just a vehicle for signing up and I’ll be able to get text alerts without needing this app again.
