5/5Expired Alerts Issue Seems to Be Resolved
November 09, 2023 Yesterday I received notification that the old alerts issue has a solution (on the Alerts tab, tap the icon that looks like a circle around an ellipsis & tap “Hide Expired Alerts”.) March 23, 2023 Since posting the review below, I have found another way to clear old (& no longer useful) alerts, remove then add the location covered by the alerts. This is slightly faster than deleting, downloading & reconfiguring the app. January 28th, 2023 I am giving a one star because it appears the developer is not interested in fixing this problem as I see people have been pointing it out for several years. There should be a means (e. g. swipe left or an Edit function that people could select alerts to remove.) What value is there in in keeping alerts that have have expired long ago still in the list? The only way I could find to remove the old alerts is to delete this app (which removes all data associated with the app), install it again & reconfigure the app. This sounds like the horrible things I hear about PCs!

2/5Customized settings don’t work
I only signed up for a few specific types of alerts (fire related and hurricanes, or tropical storms) and I get extremely frequent “high surf advisories” (including waking me up 30 mins before I planned to wake). I looked this morning and my settings were NOT checked to include those but I was woken again too early by a warning that I have Zero need or desire for. Super annoying. I have to risk no fire alerts to not be plagued by unwanted noise and adrenaline surges.

1/5What’s this fraud notification?
I just got a notification from myAlerts talking about a potential “fraud” transaction that posted to my and to call a number to block transaction. First, I had to remind myself what this app was since I don’t recall proving any app with access to any of my bank accounts. When I realized this app normally provided me with weather alerts, it became clear that (a) they’ve been hacked or (b) they’ve start committing fraudulent messages and notification to scam users. Either way, this is app a “quickly uninstall this app as fast as possible” to avoid being scammed in the future. USER BEWARE!

1/5Unreliable
Do NOT rely on this to save your life, or even warn you of potential danger. The sheer lack of notices should be criminal for an app that claims to alert you to potential danger. Took HOURS to get emergency notifications regarding the tsunami in Hawai’i. After the trama of the wild fires I have this app to provide me up-to-the-minute emergency updates. NOT to not get any notifications and when I do open the app it’s unable to even load my location.

5/5Alerts faster than weather apps.
AlertSense is a fantastic app that alerts long before any of the weather app send alerts! Always the first to warn you of upcoming bad weather. Im not sure whats going on with the other bad review but i can asure you it definitely works perfectly on my iPhone XS Max! 90% of the time AlertSence warns me several moments before the Weather Channel app or any other weather app i have.
