### 2/5 — “Bread Crumb” option

*2026-06-18*

Access to incidents can be complicated for subsequent units arriving.  The app needs a means to show the route from the main road to the fire.  This applies mostly to brush fires.  Glow sticks & flagging isn’t sufficient.  And engine should be able to record their path of travel (trail of bread crumbs) show their route to the fire or “best access”.  The path of travel could be highlighted or dotted until a it is turned off.  HUGE OPTION that needs to be developed

### 5/5 — Good app!

*2025-12-06*

Good app! But can you fix the GIS data not loading, and could you add something like a continuius notification where it will keep alerting until you open the app and look at the alert? Thanks!

### 5/5 — Used every single day.

*2025-11-21*

I’ve been using Tablet Command for a few years now on almost every one of my incidents up to a five alarm fire. The resource tracking and the ability for everyone to see what is going on is an absolute must have for the modern fire service.

### 4/5 — Good but needs upgrades

*2025-07-13*

Overall the app works well, however it would be great to see a compatible version for the Apple Watch. Otherwise it works well having the on duty and off duty notifications…if we could only link it to Telestaff!

### 1/5 — Streets

*2024-08-19*

The size of the fonts for the streets is horrible. They don’t get bigger when you zoom in, making it hard to give your engineer directions. My department can’t be the only one that has this issue. TC doesn’t seem to be working on it.

### 5/5 — Pocket MDC

*2024-04-17*

I use it every day at work it’s a mini mdc in my pocket. Sometimes I even get runs dispatched to my phone faster than over the PA.  Only thing I would add is the Leroy Jenkins sound for a alert sound.

### 2/5 — Need a couple updates

*2023-02-07*

Good quick app. Maps are great. Needs. Couple things. 
1. A feature to push through phone on quiet or do not disturb and a repeat alarm until acknowledged. 
2. A lot of old calls remain on all that need to be deleted.

### 3/5 — Mediocre app

*2022-04-01*

The UI is super clunky and it refuses to use Google Maps instead of the garbage Apple Maps even when changed in settings. 

Maps of hydrants and other info is nice though.

### 2/5 — Terrible app, needs lots of work.

*2021-12-17*

I use this app everyday for work and it’s pretty terrible. The map feature never loads so you can’t see where other units are or where the call pin is located. My partner and I usually end up just mapping with google maps because Tablet command never loads. This issue is compounded by the constant crashes the app experiences especially when trying to use functions like “responding” and “at hospital”. 
This app has lots of potential - it would be great if all the features actually worked!

### 4/5 — Good

*2021-07-15*

Good app. Needs an override silent feature like active 911.
