User Reviews

User reviews show a generally reliable paging/alerting app that is considered a great tool. However, frequent updates have introduced regressions—navigation issues, altered workflows, and especially tone alerts failing or being delivered as texts. A key complaint is the inability to respond within the app. Users also want enhancements like maps, on-duty/off-duty visibility, and unit tracking. The overall sentiment is positive about usefulness, but update-related reliability issues are the main concern.
Pros
  • Reliable paging/alerting that generally works well.
  • Described as a great tool/system for emergency communication.
  • Overall usefulness and positive sentiment about the app.
Cons
  • Update-related regressions breaking navigation and core features.
  • Tone alerts not functioning after updates (often delivered as texts, not waking users).
  • In-app response capability missing or not working.
  • UI/navigation changes and accessibility issues introduced by updates.

App is fine but only allowing four different tones is annoying.

When is this app ever going to be updated?

The interface could be improved as well as the ability to modify the sounds of the alerts in the phone settings. You won’t be able to do an emergency bypass with notifications, so you won’t hear a page unless your phone ringer is on. It works well beyond that, just would appreciate more personalization options.
