Add Amber Alerts

70 votes

Add Amber Alerts with updated information, pictures, and a quick way to notify authorities. This would require approval from the user to accept Push Notifications.

Thanks, WCM3. This is a great idea.

It is, but wafb and other sources send out alerts already. Also, not sure if that has anything to do with licenses.

Mobile phone operating systems already allow users to enable or disable this feature.

In iOS, go to Settings > Notifications then scroll down to the bottom of the page where you will see “Government Alerts”. Tap the toggles next to “AMBER Alerts” and/or “Emergency Alerts” to turn them on or off.

The same may be done on phones using the Android operating system.

We do not need this duplicate feature.

Please don't I certainly don't want another alert going off on my phone. There are plenty of apps that do that already

Not sure if this app is best for that. This is designed for state license. Plus phones are already equipped with AMBER alerts notifications.
