The first place I head to when adverse weather conditions are raised is to Emergency! Now a First Aid App has been developed which I am sure will be very helpful, even if never used a great benefit to have the information with you at all times.

Very useful app but shame that 'British' Red Cross only included English flood warnings. Why not liaise with SEPA to get Scottish flood warnings eg. Losing two stars when living along a Scottish river

I live next to a river that is notorious for flooding, and the alerts have been absolutely reliable. The added feature of severe weather warnings is helpful.
This is the sort of app that makes buying an expensive smartphone worth every penny.

This is the app to have if you want to know about emergencies. No doubt when the BBC ends its association with the Meterological Office, I'll be depending on it more than ever. Until then, the BBC Weather app is quite good for weather, sunrise/sunset that sort of thing.

This is a great app to get push notification alerts when a situation (eg flood, snow, etc) is likely in any of your saved locations (including your current location).
Works perfectly on my iPhone 6. Maybe those getting crashes need to try a reinstall.
Highly recommended app.

I already have the First Aid app by British Red Cross so I was intrigued by this one, it's a clever idea. I walk a lot and I also have a couple of vulnerable relatives living a few hours from me, so it's great for keeping an eye on them, especially with the volatile weather recently. It looks very clean and it's really easy to use. Well done! Note - couple of people complaining of crashes below, I haven't had this problem, so assume it's fixed in the update.

Emergency alerts - no longer??
