Emergency Alert for Android
We use your Emergency Alert app to alert engineers in case of IT emergencies. Unfortunately the app stopped working since our upgrade to Android 7 on the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge. While the text message **REDALERT** is intercepted correctly, and an alert is shown, the app now fails to turn up the volume of the device if the device is on no-disturb mode (sound turned off). I have given the app full privileges to turn on sound, and have enabled this setting in your app. Yet it still fails to turn on the sound, hence I am missing the emergency alert. Note also that the email address listed on play store does not work. All emails are returned. @Ryan, I've tried to send you another email now.

Using on HTC Desire. This app is really useful. My burglar alarm can send out calls and or text messages, so I programmed it to send out a red alert in the event of an alarm activation. I was very impressed because the app even works if I used 'force stop'. The red alert noise is loud enough to be heard but wasn't startling or intrusive, so I really like that feature. Finally, I was pleased the file was as small as it is because my phone is crammed as it is! Great app!
Thank you !!
I cant figure out how to use it
I use it for my family to contact me in emergency with red alert or for important information you can use yellow alert .

Won't alert when the message comes from an email address, which is how my alarm monitor sends activity alerts out. That stated, if all you want is for it to alert for messages from other phones, it does that nicely.
