I am getting tired of notifications for every little thing that is going on in the county. I don’t want to delete the app or turn off notifications because in the event of an emergency I want to be informed. Almost all of the notifications have nothing to do with emergencies just non emergency announcements of things going on. Getting annoyed at multiple weekly notifications of nothing important.
I am genuinely grateful for this app, and all of the people that help maintain and update it. It has served to keep my family and I up to date on important events around the valley many times. I first downloaded the app during the Lolo Peak Fire as the Ravalli Sheriffs were excellent at pushing notifications about evacuations and closures. Along with InciWeb and the KPAX app, we were on top of what was happening and where during the stressful time. And since then the app has kept me informed of all kinds of information - some unimportant to me personally but some critical and only found on this app. Occasionally there are notifications that don’t seem crucial, but they only serve to make me feel a bit more aware of what is happening around the area. I am really impressed and thankful the Sheriffs have used this method to keep residents of Ravalli up to date, and hope it keeps being a valuable resource. It feels a bit more personal than a press release or news report.
I really like the push notifications about community incidents and events. Although there are some notifications that do not apply to me at certain times it is great to know about what is happening in the surrounding areas. Keep up the good work.
Very good com between community and police. Whether weather alerts, fires, accidents, lost children or adults, or moose in the grocery parking lot, a much appreciated application. Not used needlessly. Thanks
The app is especially helpful during this time of year. I like the information it provides regarding what is happening in the community and surrounding areas as well.
Maybe I am missing something , but it would nice to have a daily blog telling the public what is going on everyday . Calls responded to and there out come . I clicked on bulletins and the last information posted was March of 2022 , really ?
I’d like to have a way to choose the notifications received. I don't want every press release and picture posted. I’d delete the app but there is the occasional useful notification so I keep it...for now.
