We Investigate the app owner's website (), verify their legitimacy, and uncover hidden scams and complaints.
Slow notifications with limited information. No date or time stamp for incidents. History of incidents section is old. Get on a group me buff group instead.
Agree with other review. No time stamp and not all jobs posted. Should have 1st due companies Rest of app kind of useless and not kept updated
I was hoping to be able to use TheFireWireApp and give a great review but it won’t let sign up for a log in. I’ve tried for 3 weeks now hoping there was an error on their end and it would be corrected. Disappointed.
Signed up for paid version and selected Manhattan as bouough to watch. In 2 days received NO notifications. Looking at the history list, I’m seeing all the boroughs instead of Manhattan. Last Manhattan call shown is over 12 hrs ago.
2 emails to developer have gotten no response. Am going to drop the renewal
Don’t waste your money on the premium subscription, they charge 5.99 a month which is expensive and they do not keep up with posts and notifications for Long Island. Not worth the money at all. Buyer beware.
After upgrading to IOS 13 I stopped receiving notifications. Hope TheFireWireApp will be updated to fix this issue.
My chats is broken! Every time I try to chat it won’t post! If someone can please me how to fix it.
Update incidents more frequently
Unable to set settings or customize notifications.
Would be cool to see unit run down! Keep up the good work.
It would be better if the map could expand to full screen.
Excellent , the more info the better,also how to help those hit.
NYC Firewire has rolled out it’s new app, and updated it already. The main feature is the notifications page which alerts you to incidents. The notifications are pretty quick, while listening to incidents unfold on the scanner they come over TheFireWireApp rapidly.
A list of incidents and interactive map appear on the main page.
In settings you can choose to be notified by
Citywide, Borough, Incident type, or by individual unit. You can also choose alert sounds which include the actual tones and announcements that come over the station PA’s.
Growing up and listening to “the City” from skip on a scanner I can say TheFireWireApp gives you all the information you want without fear of missing the action in a timely and professional package.
Love TheFireWireApp. Can’t wait for the update to pick boro.
I can’t complain. I love TheFireWireApp so far. Hopefully in the future you can add pictures or videos of fires. Keep it up guys!!
I like TheFireWireApp . I’m looking forward to the update where we can select certain companies, call types, and boroughs. Keep up the good work.
