Awesome! But one suggestion.

This app is amazing for fire-buffs. Maybe the number one app for this sort of thing. The only suggestion I have, is to PLEASE cover smaller emergencies. I noticed a notification only pops up for LARGE emergencies or large fires. Please give us a heads up about smaller calls, like gas leaks, trash fires, and could we be noticed about where units are responding to also? Thanks.

NYC Firewire has rolled out it’s new app, and updated it already. The main feature is the notifications page which alerts you to incidents. The notifications are pretty quick, while listening to incidents unfold on the scanner they come over the app rapidly.A list of incidents and interactive map appear on the main page.In settings you can choose to be notified byCitywide, Borough, Incident type, or by individual unit. You can also choose alert sounds which include the actual tones and announcements that come over the station PA’s.Growing up and listening to “the City” from skip on a scanner I can say this app gives you all the information you want without fear of missing the action in a timely and professional package.

Found my ultimate fire buff app. I was a volunteer for 22 years but stopped when I moved to a different state. I enjoy listening to the FDNY and this app makes it easier to keep tabs on what’s going on since I can scan all the fire boroughs. The alerts may be slightly delayed and there was one all hands under control that never made it on the alerts today but that’s a very minor detail. Over all it’s very nice. Keep up the good work.

It would be better if the map could expand to full screen.

It would be better if the map could expand to full screen.

• A fresh new look across sign-in, registration and password reset. • Email verification when you create an account. • A redesigned Areas & Alerts screen the first time you pick your areas. • Unit chips on incidents now use colors managed per region. • Bug fixes and performance improvements.
