### 5/5 — Amazing!

*2026-06-28*

This app works perfectly! If a smoke alarm or fire alarm is going off, it vibrates much better than Apples sound recognition mode. Very helpful for deaf and hard of hearing.

**Developer response:** Hi, thank you for your comment and your support of our app. Best regards
