CRIMEWATCH Mobile

I downloaded this without the usual research that I do a reading of reviews, which I think was a mistake… Again. For the last five years people have been asking for the same thing and where are they developers at to answer those? Who knows? Some of them have been answered, but have they been fixed… NO! Don’t the developers know that just because you create an app it doesn’t stop there? I’m sure the good ones to know that,But obviously not all of them. Like I said, just because you develop an app, don’t they know that the AFTER development is just as important if not more important than anything else. You have to keep your viewers. Happy. Well, there’s no need of me sitting here talking about this because evidently they don’t get it with this app because from five years back, they’ve been asking for the same thing and they have not received it as of yet. I’ll probably be deleting this app.

I love the concept of this app and it’s purpose but I am continually frustrated with its operation. Either I am totally misunderstanding how to navigate this (in which case it is overly complex) or something is wrong with this version. I’ve followed the local agencies, but I can’t seem to get the “nearby” feed to accurately report the most recent local incidents. I get local incident from various amounts of months ago seemingly randomly displayed, then as I scroll downward I get results from all agencies wishing the last few days. Very frustrated but will continues to check back due to the potential this app has.

It has potential but there are problems: 1) The app description should list which U.S. States it currently covers. The way the description is written, you'd expect it to cover several states. It just covers Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. Big disappointment and a waste of my time. 2) App supposedly gives you a "choice" about using your location. I answered "No". Later on, the app declares there is no information in my area! What? How does it know that without looking up my location? Why did it even ask my location if it was just going to ignore my answer? Privacy issue.
