Awesome app

I really like the ease of use. It’s nice that I can watch multiple locations, my home, my kids school, my daughters work! Great app

Focused App . Just to send Alerts . No garbage.

I was sick and tired of next door app drama , this is app focused on mission alert . Impressed !

get notified when there is something going on nearby

I like the simplicity of being able to get notified when there is something going on nearby. Or is I see something is progressing to go on an either add it or see the details other have already reported.

Safety

I like the idea of getting safety alerts to my phone for my local area, but without all the chatting.

Amazing potential

This app seems like it will have the potential to completely change the way that we view neighborhood security!
