SaskAlert is the Government of Saskatchewan's emergency public alerting program that provides critical information on emergencies in real time, so you can take action to protect yourself, your family and your property.

Key features of the SaskAlert App include:
• alerts for life-threatening and developing situations
• alerts targeted for locations you are interested in
• a Follow Me feature to receive alerts near your current location
• geographical alert area shown on a map
• alerts can be easily shared on social media, and by email and text message
• alert details include informative emergency descriptions, impacted areas and instructions on how to remain safe
• easy to setup and use
• accessibility features allow full use by people with different abilities

An emergency alert issued through SaskAlert will:
• let you know what the emergency is;

• provide instructions for you to follow to stay safe;
• and advise you when the incident is over.

Alerts can be issued by Government of Saskatchewan ministries, crowns and agencies, local governing jurisdictions and Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC).

Meh

Needs some work. I get an alert but doesn’t give specific location.

Developer Response ,

Thank you for your feedback. Sorry to hear the SaskAlert app is not meeting expectations. If you can contact at us at saskalert@gov.sk.ca, we'd like to talk about how we can improve the location identification.

I don’t like it

I’m old. I don’t like it.
It would be nice to have but I must be able to shut it off completely.

Developer Response ,

Thank you for your review. We are sorry you cannot turn off the app completely. Did you know that within the settings of the app you can turn off many types of alerts? If we can help you with this please contact us at https://emergencyalert.saskatchewan.ca.
