### 3/5 — Info

*2019-11-19*

The app no longer works with IOS 13 update

### 3/5 — Needs a refresh

*2019-11-10*

A useful app, esp the mapping features. 
Search function no longer works some iOS13 but probably the most annoying thing is that filter settings are not remembered between sessions. It is so tedious to reset these every single time you use the app.

### 3/5 — Needs updating!

*2019-10-18*

The search feature no longer works and main page keeps freezing.

### 3/5 — Was great

*2019-10-15*

Worked great until the iOS 13 update, now search function is kaput

### 3/5 — Excellent App... but!

*2019-10-08*

Excellent app. Great customisation but search function not working since ios13.

### 3/5 — Privacy worries

*2019-01-07*

App works well HOWEVER I am concerned how it shows the EXACT ADDRESS on the map ambulances etc is attending because this makes these address more likely to be robbed, invaded etc and also the person who is arrested/picked up and helped by paramedics is not allowing for their current address and problem to be broadcast to the public - I think there should be different settings for those who work in the professions and those who are just pedestrians as we (myself who is a person regularly going to hospital) does not need to know exact addresses

### 1/5 — Was a great app now RUINED by Ads!

*2026-06-02*

Was a great and simple app but now is absolutely crippled by invasive ads that take up more than half the screen.

Not needed!

**Developer response:** The ads pay for the app to be running. If you wish to remove the ads you can simply signing in.

### 1/5 — Was great but stopped working

*2025-04-13*

The app should be removed as it is no longer maintained and does not work anymore

### 1/5 — NOT WoRKING

*2022-07-10*

As a long term subscriber and then free user to have to rate this site with 1 star is a shame. 
As of the past few days this app and its parent website is down reporting expired certificates, has been down more often then live over past few months, now can't even leave feedback through the app or website !!

You try to search a suburb and it freezes up and does nothing was working good for a few months now a waste of time

### 5/5 — Login issues fixed

*2021-12-23, version 2.0.13*

The last update seems to have fixed the need to login every time I used the app - well done and thanks.

### 5/5 — Great app, great support

*2021-01-09*

This is a great app, and as the title suggests, the devs offer great support as well. I’ve had this app since it’s inception and it has been very reliable. 

Other comments concerning privacy, especially for SAAS are not true / founded. There is only a grid reference number (UBD) - no actual address is published on the page. It would go through to the fleet MDT.

### 5/5 — Fast and reliable

*2019-10-06, version 1.0*

Great to monitor the emergency’s in my area, Especially on high fire danger days.

### 5/5 — Good job

Work in the industry. App is reliable and easy to use to track the actions in my area. Great work.

### 4/5 — Great, but have concerns.

*2025-02-12*

This is a great app, but I am concerned it poses a security risk with the information that is shared.

### 4/5 — Great app will one be developed for Vic

App works well, does anyone know of any similar for Victoria

### 4/5 — Great APPLICATION
