Nothing in central new York. Didn't even get to use it because there was absolutely no alerts or any information in central new York area. Not may downloads so I'm sure it's attributed to that. It's a good idea and maybe I'll try again when it receives more downloads. It's completely free however. You creat an account which is relatively quick. After adding your address it will add all your surrounding areas. You can also add what ever areas you would like to.

Could be good, but too basic - not enough user settings. You either get all alerts or none. Can't pick just emergencies or by category (e.g. events, infrastructure, weather, etc). Get multiple notifications per day, but on the notifications tab, you only see the previous month, so if you dismissed it, it is hard to find again.

Sorry for the confusion, but you mention some of our best features! Savvy Citizen enables users to customize content settings. Select the community you follow and then choose the specific categories you want. For notifications, go to the notifications tab and scroll down to view the last 120 days of notifications sent. We hope this helps!

easy to open, as of yet have not had any notifications, so not sure exactly what to expect.
