The location icon seems to be a bit off on the map, up to 15 (road) miles , which can turn into many miles in rural areas with limited roads. It has happened about 7 times, that I noticed. Position on map lags a lot. Not sure if I'm allowed to share examples of location problems due to privacy regulations but have provided feedback to the using department. The county does not use a rural route system, so it is all street/road names with similar names far apart sometimes.

I'd love to give this app 5-stars, but there's a few unresolved issues and easy improvements that could be made first. When I try to switch from "off duty" to "on duty", the screen blinks between day and night mode, and content flashes on and off. Takes several restarts to fix. The widget is nice, but can we choose a rig and go on-duty right on the opening page? Is there a way to archive the alerts, and export to a .csv file? It would be nice to remove agencies, when you have many

Obly giving this 3 stars because I'm thankful something like this simply exists. However, I have constant issues with the app (and widget). Recently the widget to change duty status hasn't been working (click it and it freezes on the 3 dots). The duty status within the app itself has also been acting up and not changing (especially when switching from off to on). Extremely great concept and it works way better on Apple than it does Android so will give higher rating when issues get fixed.

Overall this is a great app that helped bring my backwards employer into the 21st century only about 15 years too late. Unfortunately it has a major flaw in that the contrast of the road outlines/road names/background are such that it is very difficult for me to read the map, especially in the bouncy cab of the engine. To make matters worse the street names stay tiny no matter to what extent you zoom. I encounter this problem in all viewing modes but dark mode is the worst.

Review for the previous version. The problem we have had is that when we pull up the map 90% of the time it shows directions to the wrong locations. Sometimes it's many miles in wrong directions. Not sure if this is the app or how the info is entered into the app but this a critical problem for our fire department. Latest version says this is fixed. If so, this will be a 5 star app.

Great Customer Service! The map function wasn't working on my android phone after the last update. I contacted tech support and they had me uninstall the app, restart my phone, then reinstall the app. Once the next tones dropped, the map function worked again. Easy fix and great assistance. We cover 400+ sq miles of a rural area so the maps are not always accurate and we've be directed to the wrong location at times (thankfully we know the area well enough). Otherwise, very helpful tool!
