## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Location cannot be edited

*2021-02-21, version 4.5*

During tutorial and setup the location could not be edited, which makes this app useless at the current version.

Good use of technology when you fix the bugs.

### 1/5 — Not usable

*2019-10-15, version 4.0*

Great idea,  it can’t recommend. 
When you add emergency contacts it doesn’t let you change from home to cell number. 
It’s supposed to find your location but finds me in far away unknown location. You’re supposed to be able to adjust location but that doesn’t work. 
I’ll revisit this site in a month or two to see if it’s usable.

### 1/5 — Only see a single screen

*2019-02-17, version 3.5*

Similar to other reviewers, I cannot get past the single disclaimer screen. I am using iOS 11.x on an iPhone 5s. Hope the developer provides better technology requirements in their documentation or updates to accommodate more hardware/software versions.

### 1/5 — Freezes on opening on iPhone

*2019-01-24, version 3.5*

I’ve installed app on iPad where it works fine. However, repeated installs on an iPhone 6s I cannot get past disclaimers page. Is this an iPhone issue. What is fix?

### 1/5 — New update locked up app!

*2019-01-14, version 3.4.1.0*

How about fixing latest update. All I get now is disclaimer notes. Can’t navigate in app! Tried reloading app.

### 1/5 — I've sufferer stroke

*2017-01-04, version 1.1*

How much do you have to pay? O'Connor hospital does not have a stroke center

### 2/5 — Way too heavy for an ER  app

*2024-11-11, version 4.11*

I saw this app advertised in the NYTimes. I was looking for a stroke app that would quickly show me the symptoms and maybe help me call 911. This app requires u to go thru many screens just to get to the symptoms page, and it wants your name and tries to harvest your ER contacts too. The configuration screen says that when u dial 911, it will send a message to your family ER contacts telling them to call 911 and tell responders where u are. This makes no sense. Removed the app from my iPhone. Yikes.

### 5/5 — Excellent and Can Save A Life!

*2024-12-16, version 4.11*

The best part is that it notifies your 3 pre-selected contacts in the event you call 911 through the APP—in addition to 911, loved ones can help too!

### 5/5 — Save a Life

*2023-03-21, version 4.8*

No one thinks they will have a stroke. They may think other things could happen to them like a car accident or an ankle sprain, but not a stroke. That could never happen to me or a loved one.

This app is phenomenal. It notifies one’s loved ones, it calls 911. It identifies certified stroke hospitals close to you and provides maps to get there. Everyone should have this app on their phone.

### 5/5 — Easy to use, life-saving info, multi-lingual app.

*2022-01-19, version 4.7*

Easy to use app that allows you to identify stroke signs quickly and has a 911 feature that allows you to contact emergency contacts of your location

### 5/5 — Excellent and Can Save A Life!

*2022-01-19, version 4.7*

The best part is that it notifies your 3 pre-selected contacts in the event you call 911 through the APP—in addition to 911, loved ones can help too!

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! 
911 dispatch is able to handle multiple calls for the same emergency.  In case a stroke victim is unable to communicate their location, the emergency contact notified via text message could make that lifesaving call to 911.

### 5/5 — Very Helpful

*2020-04-28, version 4.4*

Have this for my father who is at home alone most days.

### 5/5 — Good cause

*2017-07-17, version 2.1.1*

Outstanding app to help raise stroke awareness and lives

### 5/5 — Feel much better prepared

*2017-02-14, version 1.1*

I recently learned about stroke and found this app. I didn't realize how important it is to get to the right hospital so quickly. I travel a lot and think this could be very useful if I am ever around someone who has a stroke. Thank you!
