Makes me feel safe anywhere in Los Angeles ### 5/5 — AMAZING APP *2024-02-27* This app has been almost perfect for my street journalism. I use it every night that I’m out capturing different types of scenes across Los Angeles. It’s fast and very accurate which allows me to sometimes be the first on scene! Definitely recommend. ### 5/5 — Love this app! *2024-02-20* My roommates and I live on a busy street near a fire station and are always curious to know what’s happening when fire trucks, ambulances, helicopters, and cops are rushing quickly by. This app helps us figure it out in a moments notice. Really nice getting urgent news notifications, too! I've been notified of major incidents such as a destructive landslide near my house during a storm, a full house fire (which I read the next day was a celebrities house in Beverly Hills 😳), and an explosion in mid city. Every major incident notification from this app has been top news story in the city next day. I highly recommend to anyone interested in being aware, especially if you live in a big city. Definitely providing peace of mind in this house! ### 5/5 — Excellent App *2024-01-11* LAIT911 provides a great service for first responders, media, community members, and members of government who wish to remain informed without listening to a radio scanner all day or waiting to see reports in the media. This can give you a vital heads-up if you live near a large scale incident or wildfire that may threaten your home or business. As a first responder, I can say that the app and service work as well (if not better) than “professional” public safety apps. ### 5/5 — Simple but powerful. *2024-01-11* This app has great potential. It has filtering by area and time. Recorded radio calls. Live updates. I also use Citizen, but that app doesn’t have as much calls as this app has. Definitely worth a look. 😎👍 ### 5/5 — Easy to use, great resource. *2024-01-11* Been using for about two weeks, love the fact I can get notifications for around home and where I am currently; the fact that I can remain so informed with such little effort on my part is a huge value. ### 5/5 — Does it all *2024-01-09, version 1.3.1* Terrific app and so necessary with the threat of Global Warming looming. What I really love is that it encompasses all manner of local emergencies that could effect where we live. ### 5/5 — Really Useful! *2023-12-04* I’ve been using this app for a while now I can say this app really help you to know what’s going on around your neighbor in real time it’s work for me . So thank you to the developer for keeping this app update. ### 5/5 — Great Resource! *2023-11-28* Great app to see what calls are going on in the areas you want to monitor for safety. I have been pleased with this app so far. Using it to gather intel. The map feature is useful to see incidents in proximity of a location. You should check it out. ### 5/5 — Amazing App *2023-10-16* I’m new to this app but have fallen in love with. I’ve been on it every day since I downloaded it. I love having real time info at my fingertips! I’m in the Hospital Emergency Preparedness industry, and real time data like this will help me keep informed as to what’s going on around my hospitals. Keep up the good work, it’s Amazing. ### 5/5 — Me Gusta! *2023-08-06* Reviso los accidentes antes de ir a trabajar ### 5/5 — Cool and useful app *2023-07-29* Grew up in LA and worked with the LAFD and the LA Coroner back in the 80’s. This app is very useful for emergencies for locals and for me it keeps me closer to my home which I now live on the East Cost. Well done devs. ### 5/5 — Great to stay in the loop *2023-07-21* Great app, updates often and provides accurate, and up-to-date information. ### 5/5 — Very useful *2023-07-16* This app is perfect for getting updates about incidents in your city. I recommend it for anyone who likes to stay safe and aware. ### 5/5 — Informative *2023-05-15* Provides great information, audio, and notification options. Great to use when a radio scanner isn’t nearby. ### 5/5 — Saved my life *2023-04-24* This app saved my life. I got an alert that someone was shot down the street from me. I went to lock my door, and not even a minute later, there was a guy trying to get into my house. He had a gun. ### 5/5 — Very Informative app *2023-04-13* This app gives you real time updates about real life situations happening in the city with the ability to listen to the real communications from the fire department so you get 100% factual information directly from the source. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Frustrating UI Experience *2025-12-21* This app is so annoying to use. Can’t cancel your billing unless on the app. Can’t cancel your subscription on the mobile website. Have tried to log into the app ten times with three password and an email change and none of them worked. A dialog box pops up and then disappears so I don’t even know what the issue is. Just a frustrating experience all around ### 1/5 — There are better and free apps out there. *2023-12-07, version 1.3.1* This one doesn’t show LA county calls. I live in Whittier and get nothing. On PulsePoint Whittier got 17 calls and this app only showed 1 within an hour. Save your money. This is the first time I ever reviewed an app. It’s that bad. ### 4/5 — Great app specific to LA County, but… *2025-01-19, version 1.5.0* This app is certainly off to a good start. I like that you can see active calls and have access to weather updates so you can be ahead of the game. I also love that you can set notifications for your zip code which is usually a paid feature for most apps. With that said, I don’t think the current UI is friendly for most users. Other apps like Watch Duty, Pulse Point, and Citizen have a streamlined UI that is easy to digest. Don’t let that deter you though. This app is definitely going to change over the years and I’m willing to bet it will be the go to app for LA County. If updates are made to the app I’ll update my review accordingly. Cheers! ### 5/5 — Simple and not overcomplicated gives me what we need in real time! *2026-06-22* I’ve been using LAIT911 for a while now, and it has quickly become an essential app for me. Living in a busy area, it’s incredibly helpful to know exactly what’s happening in my neighborhood in real-time. Whether it’s emergency vehicles rushing by or a larger incident nearby, the app gives me instant updates that keep me in the loop. What I love most is how simple and easy it is to use. In urgent situations, the last thing you want is a complicated interface, and LAIT911 is perfectly designed to be straightforward and clear. It gives me peace of mind knowing I have access to reliable information about my surroundings without having to wait for news reports. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to stay safe and informed! ### 5/5 — Informative Community Safety App *2026-06-22* The app is very informative because it gives me quick updates about what is going on in my neighborhood. It keeps me aware of local incidents and community activity in real time. The app makes everything easy to understand with a great user interface. This app helps me feel more prepared and aware everyday. ### 5/5 — Good *2026-04-23, version 2.0.1* Good app overall, i like that it keeps track of the helicopters around the area ### 5/5 — Fast, reliable, and actually helpful when it matters *2026-04-21* I’ve had a great experience using LAIT911. The app is simple and easy to navigate, which is really important in urgent situations when you don’t have time to figure things out. Everything loads quickly, and the interface is clear and straightforward. ### 5/5 — makes me feel safe *2025-05-17* When walking home alone at night, i feel safe knowing the lait911 app is in my pocket ### 5/5 — Informative and better than most other apps! *2025-03-26* Lait911 is a very well designed app that allows me to know what’s going on around my home and keeps me up to date with my safety and surroundings keep up the good work Lait911! 👍 ### 5/5 — LOVE THIS APP *2025-01-20* This app has made me more aware of what’s going on around me regarding any natural disasters in Los Angeles. This is a great app and I definitely recommend downloading it. Especially if you live in a busy city ## Most praised reviews (3 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Amazing app *2025-01-11* My family and I have been using this app as a tool. With all the local fires in Southern California that’s been going through are cities has been nerve wrecking so we track all the resources we have and use them as a way to determine if we should evacuate a lot sooner rather then wait for authorities to tell us. We have family throughout California so this app keeps us informed of what’s going on around us and plus We sleep better at night :) ### 5/5 — Great App *2024-10-16* Very satisfied with the great LAIT911 app. This app provided me with up to date alerts on any untoward incidents, emergencies, fire and traffic accidents happening in the community and surroundings of Los Angeles.

Better then pulsepoint, citizen app, etc. No bugs, or lags. Keep up the great work. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
