Great, but Very Limited App
This app is super useful in what it does. Frustratingly, it is also far more limited in what it does than expected.
The app allows users to choose the different locations (communities) and departments (fire, police, and/or ambulance) that are called to assist in situations. The problem is that, after you choose all the locations and departments you want to be informed about, the app then requires you to pick only one of your chosen options to receive notifications on. For example, you have 3 nearby fire departments that serve areas of your town, you can only get alerts from one of those fire departments at a time. So you might get alerts about a house to your left that is on fire, but not the one to your right.

Good to have
Up to date information
POV
I am pleased w/ PP for the most part but for only the bare minimum information. Thats all you get. Sure it would be a great thing if there was quicker real updates on “serious” fires or emergencies. I also think hearing realtime dispatch calls are pretty cool but there is no option to just hear calls specific to the area of our concern. I am ok with Pulse Point and understand it limits but it could be amazing.

Nosy app
I love how I can be nosy about what is going on in the neighborhood. I do wish it also covered police and ambulances though.
Awesome
The response time is awesome reporting it. Thanks so much
