Ratings and reviews

I like the app overall but we should be able to customize the types of notifications we get. For example, I really don't care about the concerts and games going on because I don't drive. I only care about emergency and weather situations. It's jarring to get a notification in general, but then to realize it's just about a concert or a game...that's just annoying.

A frustrating app. I really only use it for the alerts, and even those are inconsistent. There are two alert categories: "Emergency" and "General Information" and these categories seem randomly applied. White Sox games end up in Emergencies and unannounced road closures end up in General Information. A simple calendar of all big events in the upcoming week would be a great addition, as well as proper categorizing of alerts.

I like this app :) it tells you a lot of information and sends alerts. I've also recently found an option for searching events, very cool!!!
