I wish there were more applications out there that anticipated the needs of their users before they are in an emergency situation of being without power for an extended period of time. Props to SDG&E for leading the charge.
I installed this app in hopes of getting alerted before and during an outage for my home. Unfortunately, not only is the app incredibly late (notified me that there was an outage far after the fact), but it’s inaccurate to boot. My app seems to think that power is restored in my area when I can assure you, it definitely isn’t! We need to get more prior notice about planned outages, more accurate alerts for unplanned outages, and accurate information on estimated and actual restoration. A direct form to report an outage through the app would be nice, too. I would gladly rate this higher if this app did what it claimed to do. Unfortunately, it currently performs poorly on all fronts. I hope the developers can look into this reporting and resolve it in the next few updates.
Awesome way to manage fire risks while minimizing inconvenience to customers. The alerts are really helpful as they allow us to plan around potential outages and also beware of fire risk in the area. Way to go SDGE!
Now that there are so many more “suburban” areas being affected by power shut-offs with Santa Ana winds… It’s nice to have real time data at my fingertips so I can make better decisions for my daily travels.
I love the alerts, I love knowing when my power might go off. I also love the map capabilities. Great use of technology and sharing information with your customers. Congrats.
Thank you for building this app! It is simple and very easy to use and most importantly gives me peace of mind that I’ll be alerted if my power will be shut off so I can be prepared.
Great looking app that provides links to SDG&E’s Weather Awareness system which provides real-time information and maps. Very useful resource from San Diego’s utility.
I used the app for the last outages and the app worked great. I was able to register my address as well as my moms and it was perfect for both addresses! Thank you SDG&E!
Such a great idea! Fire season in SD is no joke - looks like this was implemented just in time. This will be a great resource for San Diegans living in areas affected by fires!
this would be a good app if it also showed and alerted on unplanned events. Having to open up a browser to find the outage, this app doesn’t help solve that problem. Five stars if it included that.
It took 12 hours for the app to tell me my power was out. A few hours later it said my power was restored - it wasn't. A fancy app is of no use of the data it provides doesn't match reality.
Alerts by SDG&E will help you get information and updates regarding potential and active Public Safety Power Shutoff (PSPS) affecting your area. Easily get the status and timely updates for PSPS affecting saved locations, understand the resource centers available near your outage location and get real-time information regarding your estimated restoration time.
