Hurricane: American Red Cross for Negative User Reviews
✓ Locations deleted still alertI am removing this app as a deleted location keeps sending me alerts..Version: 3.13.0
✓ FAILS August 21, 2019IT STILL FAILS TO LOAD my ALERTS, entirely. It fails when you get to the third step of adding a person - in this case, anyone where I am in NYC..Version: 3.10.2
✓ Spammed me with notifications...Don’t get this. If you do, turn notifications off. They sent me 27 in a min..Version: 3.10.2
✓ So soJust spins and says loading Hurricane. Map is cluttered with shelter data making it hard to see track. Should be an overlay.Version: 3.8.1
✓ Creepy and IntrusiveThis app wants to track you at all times. It won’t work if you only want it to find your location while you use it. If you try to add a random location, the app demands to know who you “love” there - name and address. It’s Creepy..Version: 3.8.3
✓ Version 3.12.0 DOES NOT WORKI just downloaded the app and it is a waste of time. I cannot add any locations for alerts. The maps are DOA - their map service quit and they don't have a new one. Hey guys, hurricane season is almost here. (It's May 15 now.) USELESS!.Version: 3.12.0
✓ Most recent update failed.......The most recent update failed to actually update the application. It was stuck in a constant loop of 'Installing'!! I started the update on the Wednesday before Christmas and get continually was in install mode. I insured it could install in either cellular mode or Wi-Fi mode, but the result was the same. Luckily my son-in-law had the same challenge with a different app six or seven months ago, so it took him about 15 minutes but he was finally able to delete the app completely. I wrote this review in hopes that the authors of the application will read it and understand there are problems that need to be addressed. And even though has been deleted, I really like to be out because I live in a hurricane prone area however I won't be reinstalling it for fear of being caught in a constant loop again..Version: 3.1
✓ Really Great Potential """ BUT """Really love this program "BUT" after down sizing it does not disable the location services. You can see the little arrow next to the battery level in the upper right cornor of the iphone. Even after closing the program the arrow still stays on. This runs the battery down. What I had to do is go to my setting and in Location Services, I had to disable this program. I did a test with the new release: I have a 3GS and I know my battery is not brand new and may not work as good as the new 4S models. I charged my battery to 100% last night and started your program. I did not have anything else running durning this test. When I woke up in the morning my battery is usually down to 94% or 95% when I turn it on. This morning when I turned it on it was at 54%. Not very good for an old phone. I will not be able to use this program as if I had it on all day, my battery would be at about 0% by late afternoon. :( Please fix and I would really like to turn on location services again. Thanks for a super program.Version: 1.3
✓ Flashlight hard to findI think all these Red Cross apps are a great idea, but what I like the most is the flashlight part. And quite frankly you need a flashlight 99% more times than you'll come across a natural disaster. Every time i need to use the "flashlight" in any of their apps, it takes me at least 10 minutes to figure out how to find it. It should be on the main screen. No, I don't need one more junky app on my phone so I really don't want to download just a flashlight app. Plus if you go to the Red Cross app every time you need a light you'll be more apt to remember you have it when someone is having a heart attack, bleeding etc. thanks..Version: 1.3.1
✓ EwScammers.Version: 3.5.1
✓ Abuses notifications for donationsI used this app for several years for tracking storms that affected family members. However, I am removing it because I e just had two interruptions to ask for donations..Version: 3.8.3
✓ Great app but some serious flawsFirst it drains my battery because location services will not turn of. I have the location symbol on all day. With no power we need to conserve battery. Second in a disaster situation communication is everything, you should be able to talk to other people who are in your proximity. I live in west palm beach and I have lived through five hurricane including Katrina. My neighbors and people around you are key to survival in a real serious situation. When things go bad you rely on the kindness of stranger and any information you can get. So I would really want to see some local chat room or something of that nature. Lastly we need maps and conditions of the gulf coast and Atlantic. The more info on the storm the better. I really hope you include some of this you could save a lot of lives and keep even more informed..Version: 1.0
✓ Chantel stormI find it quite interesting that you would choose a high school to show. Is this really from the Red Cross?.Version: 3.10.2
✓ What's WrongApp is not working right at all. Is there another app as this one is outdated.Version: 3.5.1
✓ Terrible appToo busy. Poor interface. NOT USER FRIENDLY..Version: 3.8.3
✓ Gen23Does not allow you to report any problems with the app to the developer. Says you can increase/decrease monitoring radius on map. NOT TRUE! Beginning to think this is a scam app..Version: 3.10.2
✓ Dint work with Irma??I literally had Hurricane Irma on top of my island, I dint had electricity so i couldn't watch the news to see what's going, I try the app and it doesn't load whatsoever. I have now Hurricane Maria tomorrow, let's see if it works from tomorrow onward..Version: 3.5.1
✓ Not showing correct locationsIt has been fine until recently. It’s not updating the current locations of any storms, like it was waaaay off, not even just a little.. Now I’m worried since this has been my most accurate app up until now. The app is up to date, but the tracker is not..Version: 3.10.2
✓ DisappointedI would expect more from the American Red Cross. A app that does not work when you need it to show you what is on top of you. All it does is sit there and spin and spin I am deleting this app..Version: 3.13.0
✓ RedCross = ScamDo not support The Red Cross! They are a business first, then a "charity" last! Please do little research before donating to these scammers! Not even half of what is raised goes to victims!.Version: 3.5.1
✓ Limited InformationWhy don’t shown shelter in Florida..Version: 3.7.1
✓ This app needs to stop crying wolf!I have been receiving Flood Warnings for Omaha, Douglas County for weeks now. My sister lives there. I call her all alarmed and she tells me “nothing but blue skies”. No flooding here”. I’m getting ready to delete the app..Version: 3.10.2
✓ Only for America?Can’t have alerts for people I know in other countries?! Really?!.Version: 3.8.3
✓ PuzzledThis is pretty much a useless app to track a hurricane. Need to be able to filter shelter information (I.e., remove, filter by location, etc.)..Version: 3.5.1
✓ 9 notifications !!All at once. That’s crazy..Version: 3.16.2
✓ Fix the app pleaseThe then crashing recently Please fix it soon as possible.Version: 3.5.1
✓ Doesn’t workI have two tropical storms (projected to arrive as hurricanes) heading my way and yet not a peep out of this app. Even opened it up and it just said, “all is well!”.Version: 3.10.0
✓ Contacts phone number choice MUST be fixed!Red Cross/ 3 Sided Cube — I'm a beta tester for the Red Cross, and have been telling you this for YEARS: You MUST fix the ability to choose which number from within each Contacts listing is to be called when the "I'm Safe" button is clicked. As it is, the top number on the Contact list is the default — there is no way to select WHICH number for the app to text. Are users to go through their Contacts list and rearrange all the phone numbers to appease the app quirks? Certainly a landline auto-message asking for 25¢ to place a call is not very convenient when the ceiling has fallen in during a natural disaster. Also, what about an option to send an "I'm Safe" email vs. texting?Without these options, the apps are pretty much worthless and do not meet with your mission statement. Your agency was created to SUPPORT those affected by emergencies. These apps are falling short..Version: 3.10.0
✓ DojodeThe Red Cross gets 91 cents out of every donation. So much for giving it to charity..Version: 3.5.1
✓ Not as accurate as it could be.App is not always accurate. Currently it’s missing track of Nicole. Sometimes it takes up to 6 hours to update information. Data is available lots of places but app does not get updated. Very disappointed..Version: 3.16.2
✓ News alertsI had so many alerts I finally had to delete the app just to get rid of all of the alerts, after ten minutes of deleting I saw no end in sight.Version: 3.8.1
✓ WARNING! Possibly deadly!Downloaded this app to help with tracking Irma and getting more information. But I've found that apparently there's no way to track the actual hurricane. When you tap the tracking section, it brings you to a list of shelters. Not hurricane tracking. And worst of all, we had a Tornado warning for a half hour, Brevard County. All my other weather apps and the TV notified me. This one didn't, but I didn't think anything of it because it's a new app and I didn't know if it would, but wouldn't you know. The tornado warning ends at 9:30am, then at 9:36am I hear a classic tornado siren coming from my iPad and my light is flashing. The warning came five minutes after the half hour warning ended..... If this was my only app and the tornado was bearing down on me I would likely be screwed..Version: 3.5
