[2013-08-20] A Google User: HTC sensation no alerts Seems to work only on wireless connection. No alert on internet pass through |
|
[2013-07-30] A Google User: good app very useful application |
|
[2013-07-22] A Google User: nice and usefull. it can help a lot to monitor hazardous calamities specially in southeast pacific region. |
|
[2013-07-10] A Google User: Not accurate!! A fire in Las Vegas has been raging for a week now. Federal funding, Red Cross, evacuations all involved. 1st ranking in the US but its not showing on this app. Maybe fun but dont bet your life on it!! |
|
[2013-06-17] A Google User: Needs to be accurate Check every day.But its not always accurate.uninstalled |
|
[2013-06-11] A Google User: Seems like a good App On Thunderbolt HTC it was unstable zoom buttons got stuck. I liked the tips but were hard to get rid of |
|
[2013-05-19] A Google User: Great app Gives you the alert and provides a link to the source of the information. Would be nice to see other alert categories. |
|
[2013-05-18] A Google User: Good.very useful app& I"ll give 5 star |
|
[2013-05-13] A Google User: Awesome.!! |
|
[2013-04-28] A Google User: Great app if it stayed up to date. But it doesnt so what is purpose. |
|
[2013-03-22] A Google User: Good app! |
|
[2013-03-03] A Google User: This should include terrorist attacks . |
|
[2013-01-28] A Google User: Great app |
|
[2013-01-08] A Google User: too much information It's a great program, however, I am really only interested in MY area, not the whole world. I was horrified when I had 11 alerts, just after and earthquake off the coast, but they were all for other places. Some kind of filter would be a great asset. |
|
[2013-01-07] A Google User: Useful info Good app with easy interface |
|
[2012-12-29] A Google User: Good! But needs tweaks! Here's my suggestion. Developers should categorize disasters seperately rather than showing them on a single screen. Users can then check the Maps for specific disasters themselves. |
|
[2012-12-28] A Google User: Good app Works good so far , on my android phone. I wish you could separate the disasters. |
|
[2012-12-27] A Google User: Seems to have good content, but late Nice views and comprehensive, but need to be able to syort by time, or type of disaster, or intensity. Also the push notifications seem late, often more than a day, and sometimes a week after the event. |
|
[2012-12-16] A Google User: Not bad, ability to filter disasters by area/type would be great :) |
|
[2012-12-13] A Google User: Good App but Didn't find how to disable notifications |
|
[2012-12-10] A Google User: WGW.LLC Love it..... great app |
|
[2012-11-20] A Google User: Alissalove I appreciate this app very much, I had no idea so much happened on a daily basis! |
|
[2012-11-16] A Google User: Love it Keeps me informed |
|
[2012-11-16] A Google User: Data collection by stealth Bizarre permissions - app collects data on all "known accounts" linked to your phone. Why? How does this relate to a basic disaster alert service? What noseyparker outfit is collecting all this user info and for what purpose? |
|
[2012-11-14] A Google User: Great I love it |
|
[2012-11-11] A Google User: Usefull.. |
|
[2012-11-09] A Google User: NEW "WRATH" DISASTER LOGO! The way things are going you may want to add a new disaster logo/label for those inexplicable disasters and major critical incidents that Mankind cannot scientifically explain. The logo should be named: "WRATH" with the numbers 777 clearly seen in the logo. But you better hurry, God is just warming up! |
|
[2012-11-06] A Google User: Account permissions ...WHY??? Why do you need access to various accounts? Did I miss something in the what's new? Will not update. |
|
[2012-11-04] A Google User: High quality information Almost too much data. Program needs to provide some form of selection or filtering and sorting. |
|
[2012-10-29] A Google User: Jml Love it..... |
|
[2012-10-29] A Google User: Not good I can't exit the program and its not user friendly I am uninstalling |
|
[2012-10-29] A Google User: Needs more customization As far as it goes this is not bad. It would be nice to be able to customize the app so you only get alerted about certain events. Filter by size of event (Quakes/storms) geolocation of the event (where it is in relation to you). I would love to set it up so I get push notifications about events near me but I don't want notifications about events halfway around the world. If I want to know about those I can look them up easily enough in the app or on the web. Right now it just alerts you about everything under the sun and you get de-sensitized to it. Would also be nice to be able to set up pull notification so you can minimize battery use by having it pull on a 2 or 3 or even 24hr schedule rather than having it constantly ping the 'net for status updates. |

[2012-10-29] Jmldesigncompany: Jml Love it..... |

[2012-10-05] A Google User: Nice app. Helped in 2011 Japan Tsunami Disaster Apps works pretty well. Zooming features are not as intuitive as I expected, and I find myself looking at the whole world instead of a particular region by accidently misgesturing. |

But there is no settings functionality in the settings button.....just two choices of map display...? This will be such a great app when it is fully developed. But perhaps you released it a little too early ? |

[2012-08-26] A Google User: Does not run on Samsung Galaxy S2 w/ ICS The map only displays on half the screen on my Samsung Galaxy S2 since I upgraded it to Android v4.0.4 Ice Cream Sandwich. Also, tapping on any of the alerts will no longer bring up detailed information on any of them, so this app has unfortunately become useless. This phone model is one of the most popular in the world so I hope the developers will fix this problem soon. |
