Ratings and reviews

The app provides localized, regional, or privince wide alerts relative to the situation and your location relatively reliably. I would give it a 5/5 if it gave alerts more consistently and not neglect alerts infrequently; there are times when I encounter alerts from other sources that this app did not provide. I'm not sure if it's controlled by an algorithm with my activity with the app, if it's a bug in the coding, compatability with my device, or a combination of all three.

Great to have all alerts in the same place - especially easy to review current Amber Alerts. The weather alerts can be a bit much (going from thunderstorm alert to cancelled to alert to cancelled, etc. within an hour), but more info is better than no info!

it's a great idea, but not all the notifications are set from here. you need to also remember to login to your regions system to update other notifications settings like "do not call me all the time"
