'Tzofar' is an app that provides alerts about sirens in Israel.
By using the app you can receive alerts based on city selection, entire areas, current location, and relevant threats.
Tzofar provides alerts on all HFC's threats such as Red Alerts (Rockets and missiles fire), Earthquake, Hostile aircraft intrusion, and more.
There are other options such as selecting alert sound, bypassing silent mode, alerts history, a map showing the areas where an alert was activated, and more.
The system is connected to the Home Front Command servers, and the information comes in real-time.
The app is not official and should not be relied on. always follow the Home front command instructions.
The system was built by Hoshen Kadosh and Itai Guli

Excellent app, well maintained and designed. It is evident that a lot of thought was put into the needs of the user during its development. Allows great flexibility in choosing the areas and also allows you to choose different sounds for main areas and secondary areas, which allows the user to react quickly even before seeing where the alarm is. Great work!
Needs Voice Announcement for Alerts

The app is useful, but it lacks an important feature: instead of just playing a sound when an alert is triggered, it should announce the name of the affected city out loud. This would make it much easier to quickly understand where the alert applies without needing to check the phone manually. Adding this feature would greatly improve the app’s usability in urgent situations.
Simple and convenient app
