Disaster Alert (PDC Global)

This is a stunning wealth of information. It would be helpful to have the blue GPS marking your immediate location. It would also be extremely helpful to have the ability to filter notifications by time, for example, past 24 hours, past week, past month, and over one month ago.

This app provides the most accurate in depth info on natural catastrophes.

Update: I didn’t think it could be possible, but this app has gotten even MORE USELESS than stated in my first review. This app is based in Hawaii, where I live. It is currently advising that the Big Island is under a high wind advisory. Every other reporting service (at least 6), is reporting that we are under a tropical storm warning! They’ve been reporting and updating their info continuously for days, while this app has remained totally silent about Hawaii, reporting instead only on Peru, Brazil, Saskatchewan, and the Southern US, among other places . . . BUT NOTHING FOR ITS HOME STATE OF HAWAII! Why are we paying tax dollars to support this stupidity and craziness?!?! My advice is to download more timely and accurate apps (NOAA, weather, local news, Red Cross, etc.) if you need to keep abreast of and prepare for potential disasters. This one is totally useless. Too bad. It used to be one of the best, back in the day. Now, they ought to be ashamed of themselves. 😢☹️😡 Go sit in the corner with a dunce hat. Stop collecting our hard earned tax money and get your funds from the countries you do report for. We need a break and an app that gives us useful, timely, and accurate information. This hasn’t been it for a very very long time. This used to be my first choice app for keeping current with emergencies in our area. However, they have “improved” it to the point of making it useless. Our area has rather frequent flooding rain storms. This app used to give timely and accurate notifications as soon as they were posted by Civil Defense. Now, the app gives notifications, but instead of giving useful information, it will almost always state that the notice has expired - even just seconds after the notice was posted! IT IS UTTERLY USELESS! Now, after the most recent update, it won’t clear the notifications count. It will clear temporarily, but as soon as there is another notification, the count will return showing the number of ALL of the notifications since the update, not just the current number. I have found the Red Cross Emergency app to be much more accurate and informative.

Thanks for hard working

Living in a volatile part of the world, this app keeps my mind peaceful. Many thanks for your quick responses to disasters.

From the get-go this app has a poor mobile design. Did the sign up with a capital letter first in my username. All seems fine till you try to login. No matter what you do the username is lowercase forced! This flaw means you can not login. Fire the designer. I’m going to delete the app now

They give constant notifications about things happening all over the world that arent even disasters. Idc about a flood in lebannon. I tried to edit the preferences and they made me create an account. No thanks i will just delete. Good idea terrible execution. Dissapointed. Just goofy honestly

Could use some graphics simplifying. Remember, it’s a phone or tablet app; not a laptop or desktop version. KISS principle

I had to take this off my old phone when it ran out of memory, but I re-added it on my new phone immediately. It is fascinating, albeit a little alarming to see problems all around the world! It’s amazing to realize that our lifestyle here in the United States is responsible for so many earthquakes, floods, volcanoes and droughts all over the planet! To think that all hurricanes, tornadoes, wildfires and health pandemics are the fault of fat lazy Americans driving Hummers makes me sad to be breathing air on this precious planet. Naturally NONE of these things ever happened before America came along. I’d kill myself it this app weren’t so darn interesting.

I have been using this app for a few months.I find it to be informative about what is happening with weather nationally and worldwide.This knowledge makes me more aware that we are a global community and all people on the planet are connected to one another because weather impacts everyone.
