### 1/5 — Lame

*2020-06-05*

Breaking news is always A few days old...
 complete with false alerts etc..
Just deleted the app . Worthless .

### 1/5 — Antiquated app

*2020-03-29*

Incredulously, this app has not been updated to support the screen sizes of any modern iOS devices. Given that these screen sizes were first introduced >2 years ago, this is a major oversight and underscores a lack of active development of this rapidly-aging app.

It is very concerning that the Mayor of San Antonio is promoting this app for our safety during hurricane Harvey

### 1/5 — Useless due to Download Error

*2017-08-24*

Just downloaded this app and it won't work because it keeps saying that the required download is interrupted, and to check my internet connection, which is fine. Bugged. Come on! What does it say when an emergency preparedness app can't be relied upon?

### 5/5 — App is now working

### 5/5 — Worth the download

*2017-08-26*

Very good information and easy to use features including various signals and lights. I like that I can easily make a list of contacts and send the same message regarding my safety or need for help. The app provides step by step prompts for preparing for many different emergency situations.  The download took a little patience and retrying but it was well worth it.

### 5/5 — It works!

*2017-08-25*

I just downloaded it and it only took seconds. There's lots of good information for my area as well as other disaster preparedness information.

### 5/5 — Works As Promised

*2017-08-25*

I'm not sure why everyone is freaking out. It works just fine, it downloads as it's supposed to, it has helpful information. People leaving this a negative review need to realize in events of emergency technology is going to have issues- the store runs out of bread for goodness sake, why do they not consider the overload of people will have its own variety of problems? 

I commend the developers for fixing the server issues before the storm actually hits. Stay safe, Texas. ☺️

### 4/5 — Good app

*2017-08-25*

I had no issues downloading app. Completed checklists and reviewed features and it appears to be working as intended.

### 4/5 — Downloaded Perfectly

*2017-08-25*

Downloaded without any hesitation or problems.  Downloaded it in the early hours of the morning (4am) to avoid problems reported like other users.  If not working for you try downloading it on off peak user times.  App looks great and is extremely informative.  Only gave it 4 stars cause I want to see how it works during a true disaster.

### 2/5 — Alerts for a different state.

*2018-01-20*

I’m not sure why I’m being alerted for New Mexico..... app will be deleted.
