### 5/5 — Excellent Software

*2025-02-08*

Works the same as Web page, except for alerts. Otherwise this is very good. Much better than the old version which this company took over. Long may this app continue.

### 1/5 — No alerts

*2024-11-24*

Just downloaded this app but no alerts shown at all

### 1/5 — Not displaying our current flood alert in Pontypridd

*2024-10-16*

Not showing an active flood alert … can’t give zero so only 1. An app like this must be trustworthy and robust.

### 5/5 — Well executed

*2024-09-30*

Well executed and the layout exactly the same across all apps and the web.
