GOES: Outdoor Health & Safety

It’s your typical app from Facebook, spam you with incorrect info and beg for money before you can even access the app. Don’t waste your money on money hungry predatory companies like this. It’s a scam. Garbage app.

I subscribed through the Apple Store and was billed, but the app features requiring a subscription don’t work and just tell me I need to subscribe. If I try to subscribe I get a message saying I’m already subscribed. I sent a message to GOES support and never received a reply.

Good app but even after I subscribed it still has abilities locked. Im not sure why.

the free versión is just a weather app, need to pay a subscription to see anything else. Save yourself some money by just doing online research on the areas you will be exploring

Like many modern trash apps, they force you through a pointless questionnaire just to eventually push you to purchase the pro version. Without paying, this app is pretty much useless. I tried to pull up instructions on what to do if someone is choking and they said I need to pay for that. Imagine if this was an actual emergency. This app places greed above safety.

This app is a great idea to have. Seems like an accessible way to store all the first aid knowledge you’d need. That being said everything on this app is essentially free on the internet and can be saved on a notes app/printed out. Charging for this information is morally questionable and not worth the money. Having CPR instruction locked behind a paywall is wrong.

I got the basic subscription ahead of a road trip / camping trip and it was invaluable to have. Not only did it help with smaller questions, but on the last day my wife had an incident at our campfire resulting in a few 2nd and 3rd degree burns. We used the assess feature to evaluate the severeness, perform first aid / wound care and get her to the nearest hospital. I was so glad I had the app ready and could rely on it in that situation.

I was recently on a hike in upstate NY and nearly stepped on a massive rattlesnake that came out of nowhere — as I stopped in my tracks and waited for it to hopefully pass, I went to GOES as quickly as possible. Thankfully I was able to figure out all the steps I needed to take in case I was not as lucky. It was so easy to find next steps in this (almost) emergency situation, this app is absolutely necessary for the outdoor industry!

Didn’t expect such a high quality app. great work all around. would reccomend to others

Has all the information you need and is super easy to navigate
