Comments on Alert SA for Android

★★★★★ Leonie Houston · Jun 29, 2026

Great you can choose alerts pertaining to your area e.g. high bushfire area or flood plains etc.

★★★★☆ Michael Page · Aug 14, 2026

This is a great app, however it would be even better if the user could define two radii, with the smaller radius being priority 1 and the larger radius being priority 2, so a different, louder alarm could be played for the smaller radius. The radius size would also be much better if it could go down as low as 200 meters.

★★★★☆ Jacob · Nov 6, 2025

The app is quite basic, essentially a CFS map in app form. Pros: Quick updates Displays Fire bans Shows all current CFS incidents and warnings Cons: Lacks fire direction or warning areas during fires All fire statuses (Going, Contained, Complete) use the same plain white icon Suggestions: Add power outage info, earthquake alerts (2.0+), and river level/flooding updates for a more comprehensive experience.

★★★★☆ Steven Holland · Feb 1, 2026

A fine free, and easy to use tool for real-time, localized, emergency alerts such as fires, trees down, floods, and severe weather in SA. Though I do wish it also included major vehicle accidents, so we know of traffic issues

★★☆☆☆ Julie Hancock (Jules) · Jan 13, 2026

Not happy with this app. I live in a fire risk area. This app doesn't give me all information I need which I can get on CFS app like the level of emergency, how many appliances on site, how many aircraft assist, a map showing constant updates of area burned full updates of action needed to be taken. We have a perfectly good app with CFS which is downloaded on cfs. That doesn't just continue to list every emergency service response as they are called out making it hard to find just the cfs info

★★☆☆☆ Kieran Nurmi · Oct 5, 2025

The notifications really need to include distance. Minimum radius is 5kms which means it picks up a lot of junk. So much in fact that I didn't notice there was an alert for the house on the corner until I saw the flash of emergency lights through a window.

★★☆☆☆ Scott H · Feb 5, 2026

The alerts are still too 'spammy'. I don't want alerts about heat waves. I know when we are experiencing a heatwave. I am not a freakin idiot! There should be a way to turn these off. All I want is alerts for bushfires. Also, when I have multiple watch zones configured, there are too many duplicate alerts, especially when a zone crosses fire districts.
