“Bread Crumb” option

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

Good app!

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!

Used every single day.

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.

Good but needs upgrades

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!

Streets

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.

Pocket MDC

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.

Need a couple updates

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.

Mediocre app

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.

Terrible app, needs lots of work.

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!

Good

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

Mapping doesn’t work

Doesn’t show units, streets, etc ever since last update.

Excellent service, ham-fisted app

Apple has allowed developers to incorporate the priority/bypass feature for notifications, that would allow notifications to come through even when your phone is set to silent. I’ve got several free apps, including earthquake notifications, and a few others that have incorporated this feature. It should be no problem for tablet command, which is an enterprise app intended for first responders and only usable by agencies, to incorporate this critical feature. How you haven’t incorporated this Critical feature yet is beyond me.

This app is severely limited in other ways, too. I wind up logging in through the web interface in my mobile browser more often than not.

Needs push through silent

Needs a feature to push through the silent iPhone. Like the critical alerts done by Active911. Other than that it is a great app.

Mini MDC on your phone

This is a lite version of Tablet Command that provides you quick information when you want it. This app resolves the question “who was the call for?” Or “where are we going?” Now you know. This app works similar to Active911, but with way better situational awareness. Often times the alert on my phones goes off before the station tones come on, which yields better turnout times. Chief’s, this is an app you want for every guy/gal on your department.

Great program, Way cheaper and better then any MDT system we’ve had for the last 20 years!

Lots of bugs. Constantly failing to show proper apparatus and/or locations. Now no calls are showing up. Always having to contact them to fix.
