Huge Downgrade!

Cole Glenwright

I used to love this app, but after this latest update it's useless! Gone is the map feature or any real news. Now all this app does is link you to CALFIRE and give you their twitter feed. Please bring back the map feature! Until then, not worth the download.


Not accurate

Doesn't show me active wildfires anymore, I know there's a shelter open, it says so in Red Cross shelter finder app, which I recommend, but not according to this app. To many glitches and no enough valuable info. I work in emergency management and love Red Cross, but will not recommend this app.


Info for Washington State incorrect

Tom_ATC

The wildfire alert option turns off at the start of the season making us have to manually check on these fast moving hazards via web links readily available online. What's the point of the app then? On to of that the app directs you to a list of resources for each state and the first one listed for Washington State is wrong ... WA isn't even listed for InciWeb. What is the point of this app taking up valuable space if it is intended to not be available when its resource is most valuable? We know it can't predict problems, but if it is a useful tool it should be useful year-round. Stopping the service because it might be slower than these problems pop-up is just dumb. And now the alerts are completely removed ... So was the app from my phone.


From good to worthless

The original app was useful in that it sent alerts.With the update you are directed to fire agency websites via an in app browser window. I don't need an app to surf the web for fire information. App deleted.


Bring Alerts Back!

I really liked the alerts! What was a four star app just dropped in my book. I don't want to have to sort through information unless I want or have to. Poor choice ARC.


Safety can be fun!

Fire notification

This is a useless app, I would not recommend it to anyone. Tells you what websites to go to but doesn't even link to them google is faster. What a piece of crap.

Without the alert feature this apps is pretty much useless after reading through it the first time.
