Unreliable
Do NOT rely on this to save your life, or even warn you of potential danger. The sheer lack of notices should be criminal for an app that claims to alert you to potential danger.
Took HOURS to get emergency notifications regarding the tsunami in Hawai’i. After the trama of the wild fires I have this app to provide me up-to-the-minute emergency updates. NOT to not get any notifications and when I do open the app it’s unable to even load my location.

Does not work
Even during a wildland fire where we were evacuated and a later tsunami advisory, there were absolutely no alerts. Do not rely upon this app.
Phantom Notifications
Notifications come on and they never go away. It is so annoying. Sometimes you get a notification, open the app only to be greeted by a spinning icon without anything loaded. Completely useless.
What’s this fraud notification?
I just got a notification from myAlerts talking about a potential “fraud” transaction that posted to my <enter bank name> and to call a number to block transaction. First, I had to remind myself what this app was since I don’t recall proving any app with access to any of my bank accounts. When I realized this app normally provided me with weather alerts, it became clear that (a) they’ve been hacked or (b) they’ve start committing fraudulent messages and notification to scam users. Either way, this is app a “quickly uninstall this app as fast as possible” to avoid being scammed in the future. USER BEWARE!

Unreliable
We were under tornado watch and severe weather alert due to damaging winds/hail. The app was blank. No alerts no data. Nothing. Do not rely on this.
