Can’t disable loud alarm noise
Jesse Alberta
Downloaded this app to try and keep more aware of ongoing emergencies. But I’m uninstalling now as there’s no way to disable the very loud and obnoxious alarm for certain emergency notifications. It’s the same one we already get forcibly sent to all mobile phones from the government. There is absolutely no need to double-startle me by additionally sending the alarm through this app. Very dangerous and distracting to get these alarm notifications while driving, or for people struggling with ptsd.
