Ratings and reviews

Pros: works fast and accurate. Every time we had a siren, I heard it about 1 second earlier than the citywide sirens went off. It's loud and clear. Con: even though I have the alert set to have both the siren and the flashlight go off, I don't get either of those. Instead I get a big visual notification and an alert sound (not the siren sound, instead it's that initial chime that sounds on the radio when an alert interrupts a song). Its too short of an alert sound. Id prefer a prolonged siren.

2 permanent icons in taskbar after last update is too much. And how about to detect "GPS in Beirut" situation and fallback to mobile triangulation to get the alert zone right without manual intervention?
