### 5/5 — Awesome

*2016-04-21, version 3.0.5*

Great app.  Our fire department staff members use it almost every day

### 5/5 — The new remember me button is great!

*2016-03-22, version 3.0.3*

Love the new design as well it's very intuitive

### 1/5 — A disappointing downgrade

*2016-02-05*

This is a huge step back from the previous version of the app. Having to drill down to a channel level to talk or mute, whilst loosing sight of activity on other channels is just useless. Still no replay ability either! Which means no way to recover important information from calls lost when two channels talk over each other. Also much harder and slower to temporarily mute unwanted chatter on a channel. The app doesn't remember your password and auto sign on like the previous version did either, very annoying and slow having to enter a password every time. 
Very disappointed our team cannot use this new version because of the downgrade in usability.
Bring back the ability to select, transmit and individually mute  from the Groups screen, and add replay functionality from the feed screens and it would be just brilliant!

### 5/5 — Great app for emergency responders

*2016-01-13*

It's a well built app that will really change the way users communicate. It's easy to use and puts the tracking of assets in the palm of your hand.
