Customer Reviews
FEMA
This is one of the better government agency apps in the marketplace. For one the design is clean and simple. Two, this app provides all types of lists for various emergencies. The app also provides important emergency contact information. The app also allows users to become more involved directly by providing a link for donation and volunteers.
Good app!
All of you complainers should be a little more self reliant and proactive. You know you can google 97% of the complaints you made. This app is merely here to enable you with the basics... Ya know the ABC's. Go start a kit and stop complaining.
Extremely basic
A multi-billion dollar agency should be able to put out a usable site. For example, it says for nuclear fallout take shelter where the walls and ceiling can keep out radiation. Well what are the best materials? How thick? Is brick best? Wood? Concrete? How about some detail? They say for us to find out what fallout shelters are available in our areas. How about FEMA collecting and sharing that information on an interactive map like Googlemaps? There are so many great apps out there produced for next to nothing but this huge agency puts out something so basic for a set of problems that are so important to get right. I'll bet they waste huge amounts of money on internal meetings that are worthless when it could be put into a great app. Just shut this do nothing agency down.
