Edit 21/7: working now. Only issue now is when I click on the pop up notification it won't open the app, but when I go into it myself I can see the events. All of a sudden app won't open at all. Won't load and won't open, but still getting notifications from it, though they won't open. Doesn't seem to be related to an update. Fix this and I'll give the app the 5 stars it deserves when it's working properly

Ive been using this app for over a year. As a volunteer firefighter I find it extremely useful and I usually get the alert before I get the callout. Unfortunately the last few days its just been crashing none stop. I open it and just straight away crashes. ive tried uninstalling and it still doesnt work. Im disappointed because I really like the app. Also it randomly defaults the widget to victoria for some reason and I cant fix it

Constantly says session has timed out and doesn't give you any option to log back on - very frustrating. And here we are yrs later and now the app will not even open because it has a bug ! Time they got some real technicians in to fix the app properly once and for all
