User Reviews

Users generally value the app for personal preparedness guidance and some emergency-information features, but the app suffers from location/zone accuracy problems and limited geographic coverage. Real-time storm updates are often not provided in-app, pushing users to external sources, and occasional reliability issues further dampen user satisfaction.
Pros
  • Promotes personal disaster preparedness and provides disaster guidance.
  • Useful for seeing government office closures and related emergency information.
  • Offers practical features (e.g., flashlight and alert sounds) that can aid locating you during emergencies.
Cons
  • Zone/location accuracy is unreliable (wrong or missing zones, GPS/location off) and coverage is limited to certain SC areas.
  • In-app storm updates are lacking; users often need to check external sources (Twitter/news) for real-time information.
  • Some users report reliability/consistency issues with the app (occasional non-working experiences).

Flashlight and Sound to help you be found. Had the app a long time but first time finding that it can do something.

The app is cluttered and confusing. I expected to find the latest info on a impending tropical storm and advice on what to do, instead i got a video of a bunch of people praying before saying it was up to me to make my own plan. Way to go for the advice from “the experts” Kinda sums up SC government’s lack of response to everything - we don’t care, go figure it out yourself.
