Doesn’t work

I tried about 20 times to get a verification code and it never sends it. I have no confidence that this app would work in an emergency.

Awesome app

Great app… good job Ryan.

Notification issues

This is a fantastic app but notifications for iOS 13.6.1 are not working when sending from an Android phone. Safety updates require you to refresh each time for new information and I get nothing from maydays until I actually go into the app on iOS. So if the app is closed - nothing. I have location set for only when using the app on both phones. There’s a lot of potential here but it’s practically useless if the notifications don’t work.
I was also under the impression that the mapping and messaging system was internal. I’m a bit disappointed that it has to go through google maps on an Android device. Anything good seems to be in the paid version. You should be able to coordinate a crisis with your family as well as you can with a school.

Broken, orphaned app

App worked as described when we first downloaded it. After a few months it became apparent my wife and I no longer receive alerts from the app. We have both deleted and re-downloaded the app with no resolution to the issue. I have decided to delete the app as we are now several months in to the app not functioning.

I like the idea of this app. Since the intent would be to trust my family’s safety on this app even one failure is unacceptable.

Stalker awareness

In a time where the world is somehow oblivious to the dangers of domestic violence, stalkers, and sexual assault victims. Sometimes there’s one person aside from your dog that may know the truth. This is a start to safety and more women and children getting away alive.

Great app

This app is a fantastic way to easily give piece of mind with kids on school

Fantastic

I got my family to download this I think it’s a great product with tons of potential to save lives and help keep families businesses and schools protected.

Perfect app for those with families

I could not ask for a application more tailored to alerting you of potential danger that those you care about could find themselves in. In a time of stress there is nothing complicated to navigate in order to summon help. Great app, great UI, great idea, and a great developer. Thank you Cleckner.

No one to contact for help

I was so excited about this app as we need it desperately for our family. The ease of use is fantastic. However, after downloading, getting verified, and adding/accepting the contacts, I noticed that every time I reopen the app, I have to go through the whole verification process before I can even get to the alert button! How does that help anyone in an emergency?

I have searched through everything on the app and the website to find help for this situation to no avail. All I can find are FAQ’s that don’t address this problem, and no way to contact someone for help. I even went to the App Store again to see if I could find a way to contact someone there, but all of the links were bad.

I just don’t understand why someone would create an app to help people, but not provide help when the app goes awry.

Not impressed.

Just downloaded Mayday on both my phone and my wife’s phone. My phone shows I’m connected with her but on her phone it shows I need to add her back and is waiting. We both have each other on but the app won’t let her add me. If an app can’t start off right I don’t know if I can trust it.

Awesome App!

I like the design and the function of the app.

Sounds like a great app

A friend of mine suggested this app because I have school-aged children and he had “used” it with other friends to test it and was very impressed. I researched it and it appears to be well thought out and answers a void in emergency situations, that of being able to notify multiple entities at once as well as being to provide a precise location of the user.

While I would love to give it a higher rating, as I imagine it deserves, I had to rate it with two stars for a couple of reasons. First, while trying to setup the app, there is a requirement to enter a verification code with an option to have a new code resent to the phone number provided. I never received a verification code and attempted to have a code resent with no success. I deleted the app and downloaded it again several times to only have the same results. Second, I contacted the app producers with the issues through both the app itself as well as through the Mayday website and have yet to receive any response.

I hope the makers are able to answer and fix this issue. Additionally, I would still recommend that others download this app as it may be very useful in an emergency event.

Won’t send me a code!

My family uses this and for whatever reason, I cannot receive an activation code!! I’ve tried contacting the developer a few times over the last month and a half but I yet to get a response.

An absolute necessity!

This system is incredible - we are a daycare facility and have this app downloaded on all of our phones and iPads in the classrooms. We manage our entire facility on the Mayday Pro dashboard. Being able to send and receive alerts and communicate directly wish our rooms (and see who is safe on a map) is awesome.

Cool idea

I’m really surprised this app doesn’t have thousands of downloads. Super great idea. This app makes it so quick and easy to alert a bunch of people if your in trouble. Let’s say you got kidnaped, who has time to whip out there phone and start texting messages to a bunch of people, and explain what’s happening. I’m going to get my fam on this app case I need them.

Good app

It’s cool how organizations can send you alerts when you’re on their grounds.

Simple and Effective

The free version for the family is outstanding simple easy to use. Because it’s so simple it’s sometimes hard to get people to understand the value of this app.

I’m looking forward to getting this app into the hands of a couple of schools and see the power of the paid version.

Great app for peace of mind

Easy and simple to use. Very satisfied with it.

Simple and safe

Simple setup and easy to understand. Spread the word on this because the more people who use it the safer we can all be!

Awesome app

At the moment my wife and I have this app. The rest of the family has android phones.
Good job Ryan
