ENCOURAGE USERS TO LEAVE DETAILS

Please encourage (or require) users to leave details. And, to inform us if the sighting has been confirmed by local rights groups. Without that info we don’t know what to look for or if the threat is credible. Without more info I don’t know if it’s just someone nervous reporting anything and everything they see or if it’s real.

Not receiving notifications

Two ice raids within 5 miles of my home and I did not receive notification of either of them.

Further, because I live on the edge of the 5 mile limit (I’m in the suburbs, 5 miles from city center AND 5-10 miles from rural farms with migrants) if I move the map to locate possible ice raids, the map just scrolls and scrolls (fetching reported sightings) without actually telling me anything.

Please make this app better

Just doesn’t work

Never notifies.

Not secure!!!

Love the concept but their security is vulnerable. I just uninstalled and recommend others do until they upgrade their security.

Delete

How can we delete something? I pressed something by mistake 😭😭😭😭

Insecure by design

Developer has knowingly included dangerous vulnerabilities and deliberately refuses to address any security reports. Users should be wary of an ulterior motive behind this app. This level of insecurity doesn’t happen by ac ident.

Delayed Notifications

This app is great don’t get me wrong, but the sightings showed up hours late again today. I usually check first thing in the morning around 7am. Today nothing showed up until 11am and the 4 sightings on the app were timestamped from 3-4 hours earlier. If the app doesn’t show sightings when they occur in real time, it’s really useless. Also I requested to have notifications show up on my home screen, nothing.

🙏🙏

Thank you for doing something to help people. You're making a big difference.

Disgusting

If I could give this a 0 I would. I will give the developer some credit it is a good idea. It needs to be implemented to protect citizens not criminals. It just shows that the developer would rather protect illegal criminals. Instead of keeping Americans safe from undocumented criminals.

Good idea in theory

This app is a great idea, the main problem I’ve noticed is that nobody uses it.

Allows ICE agents to pollute data

This app was a good idea but the developer has chosen to allow the enemy to submit misleading data. Not worth your time

EDIT: also the ux is extremely amateur

Run

DJT about to take this app down.

ICEBlock blocked?

The app no longer gives me reported sightings. Is it being blocked by authorities? I live in a large city where I know there is quite a lot of ICE activity.

Public safety gem

Doing gods work to make the world a better place.

Press the button treason

Who knew it would be possible to betray your country using just an app? Now I can help people who want to destroy it!

Worked initially but not now.

Initially I was getting reports and could see them on the app. Now, sometimes they flash at the top of my screen but when I click on the app to look, nothing is there. Tried deleting and re-downloading to no avail. I’d really like it to work😿

Careful!!

ICE has been using this app to post false raids weeks ahead of the real raids, to fool people into ignoring the alerts.

Why is this app allowed?

The purpose of this app is to aid criminals and warn them about law-enforcement looking for them.

Doesn’t seem to work anymore

I don’t know if the administration got to the developer and threatened him or what, but this app definitely is no longer functioning as it’s intended to. But the fact that it looks like everything is working is a false sense of calming that is not real. There was ICE activity in South Bay all weekend long and absolutely nothing appeared not in the app even a single reported sighting I find that very hard to believe. I don’t want to test it by making a false reported sighting (that would be wrong of me to do, just for the purpose of proving whether the app is working correctly) but I’m pretty sure if I did, nobody else would see it anyway because the app clearly is no longer functional.

Obstruction of Justice

How about creating an app to help robbers steal from jewelry stores that have poor security, called Easy Pickin’s? Is facilitating one crime worse than another?
