Incomplete information - use the printed Handbook instead.

1) Descriptions of agency services are sparse and incomplete, for example Legal Aid Society of San Mateo County shows as only helping seniors, when in fact it has a whole range of services. 2) Category searches such as for "Housing" turn up only a few of the many legal resources available. For example, Legal Aid of San Mateo County is omitted although it has Housing Clinics held 3 times a week. At this point the hard-copy Community Information Handbook 2013 is much more complete. 3) I can't seem to stop the annoying banner announcements that flash on and off at the bottom of my iPhone 4. Moving the app out of the Notifications section of Settings had no effect on this problem.
Great Resource and on IPhone 5 too!

Not only is it about time, but it is way more than we expected! And it's great on my new iPhone 5!
