RedAlert - Israel Alerts

June 13, 2024

More About RedAlert - Israel Alerts

RedAlert was developed by volunteers to provide real-time emergency alerts for Israeli citizens.
The app relays real-time safety alerts published by the Home Front Command (Pikud Haoref).

★ Speed & reliability - alerts are received before / during the official siren thanks to dedicated notification servers
★ Location-based alerts - receive emergency alerts on the move in addition to city / region selection (disabled by default)
★ Threat types - receive alerts about rocket fire, hostile aircraft intrusion, terrorist infiltration, and more
★ Alert history - see the list of recent alerts, their location, and time of day (in your local time)
★ Connectivity test - check, at any time, whether your device is able to receive alerts via the "self-test" option
★ Sound selection - choose from 15 unique sounds for alerts or choose a custom sound
★ Silent mode override - the application will override silent / vibrate mode to sound alerts
★ Vibration - your phone will vibrate in addition to playing the selected alert sound
★ Area selection - select preferred alert cities / regions by searching for them
★ Countdown - alerts will display the estimated time until impact
★ I'm safe - let your friends and family know you are safe by sending an "I'm safe" message via the app
★ Localization - the app has been translated to multiple languages (Hebrew, English, Arabic, Russian, Italian, Spanish, French, and German)

The app allows me to be aware of attacks & to pray immediately for that need.

Really the best alert app. I just have a question is it possible to load the watch on our smartphones?

This app has been the best I've tried. Not sure if it's crashed today, due to all the rockets, or if it's another attack on the app itself, but it hasn't worked for me since yesterday " Cannot receive data " is all I get..

Used to be good, but it won't show the maps. Just a red spot on a white background

Russian translation should be fixed. E.g. "Закрыть" instead of "Закрывать" etc.

Very reliable, I like it better then the other apps. Though for some reason it stopped alerting for the last 8 hours - I reinstalled the app a few times and changed the settings but nothing worked.

Much better than other red alert apps, because you can control the sound! Thank you! I would like a map of all the rocket locations, not just individual locations. Update: July 2019 now I am told that this app is operational again!

I would love the option to have the location spoken as part of the alert. As a sign of solidarity and to show please the seriousness of the situation, I often drop down to the floor wherever I am and people ask me what's happening, if this was part of the siren "take shelter, rocket heading towards "location"" this would mean more people get why I'm getting down.

What a pos. No volume control, sound that would kill an elephant, 🐘, 80 yr olds might need a feature like that, but u r killing us, the gui is ugly af, its not fast as i expected, the history is good. the areas were buggy, got alerts for other areas without marking em, may have been fixed.

Owner said we can choose volume level. Upgradee to 5 star Well, good app but deleted due to lack of volume controll. Even when i lowered every volume i have (ring tone, media, clock, notification) the app is overidin it and alarm the maximum volume possible. I sit with the phone near me i dont want to get heart attack etch notification. Will install again when volume controll will be added

Great app! Only problem right now is that the list doesn't automatically update, so when I want to see the most recent, takes ages to load, and sometimes also as the always alerts are coming in, you can't see them in the list.

Writing this from the bomb shelter. Heard the app before I heard the siren outside. This app is a lifesaver. 12.05.21 Unfortunately, i have started using the app again, after re-downloading. It still works perfectly, better than the official 'Home Front' app, which I have now removed. The app is intuitive and easy to set up and use. I can keep tracks on my kids' locations too, without having the siren sound. October 2023. Unfortunately, using the app again. Still as reliable as ever. Life Saver

Good app with nice features like the quick connect to WhatsApp. Alerts come in on time to take action.

Got better for a long time but just started crashing again. Uninstalled and now am reinstalling. In October I said Sadly it crashes and doesn't work a lot of the time

Great app and even more reliable than the official home front app (which had false alerts). One point for improvement: When getting an alarm on my phone, I hear the sound and start to look for the phone and see where the alarm was. But the visual alarm field vanishes too fast for me to see it. Would be great if you could leave the visual for few seconds longer. Thanks! I don't need a bigger popup window, but for it to stay 2 seconds longer.

This app's as dependable as a paper umbrella in a rainstorm! It's supposed to alert me about incoming rockets, but one nearly hit my backyard before the app even blinked. Friends in Sderot share the same frustration. I'd sooner take shelter under a flimsy tent than trust this app to keep me safe! At least the tent isn’t giving me false hope.

While it's a lifesaver, the notifications are absolutely unnecessary almost all of them and you can't select which notifications you want . Glitchy , constant connect and reconnect notifications, makes my phone almost unusable because you're clicking stuff on the phone and the drop down cones down and you hit it by accident. Geez fix it
