No Apple Watch app?

This is required for schools, and teachers and councilors often rely on Apple Watches. As a teacher moving around campus carrying supplies, my phone is easy to accidentally leave behind. I would feel so much better if this could integrate with a cellular Apple Watch, which I would always have strapped to my wrist. Other than that, it has always worked well in drills, with a great design. Hopefully I will never need it for anything else!

No “alarm” sound when activated

My phone does not alert me with a loud noise. I get a small “ding” on my watch and maybe a small noise on my phone. I’ve seen other have this problem too. Other people in my same office get a loud “alarm” noise when their’s goes off, but I don’t. I’ve messaged support and they “tried” to help me, but I sent screenshots of both my app settings and phone settings, then a separate message about how both times it was activated Friday at work it did not alarm (as per my email, but to confirm nothing was “fixed” on their end) and I have yet to get a reply still 2 days later. My app isn’t working an intended to notify me of an urgent situation and no one cares to help me fix it, I guess.

No audible alarms even with critical alerts enabled.

Despite having every possible iOS notification setting enabled—including Critical Alerts, Time Sensitive Notifications, sounds, and persistent banners—the Rave Panic Button app consistently fails to make a sound during drills or emergencies. I’ve confirmed volume settings, mute switch, Focus modes, and in-app settings, but the app still remains silent. For an application that’s supposed to be used in life-or-death situations, this is unacceptable. If alerts cannot reliably bypass iPhone’s silencing features, the app loses its core purpose. Until this issue is fixed, I cannot recommend relying on it for real emergency communication.

What the heck man

Can’t even sign up with My phone number because some fatty took it from me?? I didn’t even get a register text yet it’s registered what the heck man.

(This isn’t a joke)

Needs Apple Watch extension

I am an SRO in a school, I wear a Apple Watch, and when my phone is on silent the do not disturb bypass will not work while my Apple Watch is connected to my phone. I have to keep my phone on silent in order not to disturb classrooms. They definitely need to give some attention to making this work with watches as well.

Love it

Love the new practice mode

Can’t verify number

I’ve put in all the numbers with the Guardian app. It doesn’t recognize any of them.

Wish it had watch extension

This app is amazing. Only wish it had watch extension in case I set my phone down:/
Great app very effective. Needs extension.

Audible Alert

The audible alert is too quiet. It needs to be loud enough to be heard in an active classroom, at recess, etc.

Easy to navigate

Saves lives! Super thankful for this app

Good but teachers don’t walk around with phones

Please make an app for the Apple Watch.

Can colleges use this too?

I want to know if universities and college campuses can use this device too. And I’m not understanding the whole institution thing, especially when I register .
I just want to know if students can use this worldwide for all types schools and not just high schoolers in south Florida.

Powerful

As a school resource officer, I will use any tool at my disposal to keep my students and staff safe. This panic button was very easy to set up and easy to train my staff to use.

Geofencing was surprisingly easy. A little curious about how many buildings I can sublet into one building and make the app still work.

Incredibly powerful app

Amazing. Saves lives.

Cost

How much does it cost? I can't find the information anywhere on their website.

Good app, easy to set up, wish there was Apple Watch extension

This app more than gets the job done, it has an easy set up, and has reasonable guards against accidental calling. I do wish that there was an extension for the Apple Watch, in case I set my phone down or something, it would be good to be able to trigger an alert from my wearable.

App does not work
