A lot of times the free version of an app doesn’t give you enough features for you to really appreciate whether you will use it. Clearly, the people at citizens care more about people being informed than them up selling you and realize that if they provide a quality product, you will pay the premium price. I’ve only had the app for today and already. I’m thinking I’m going to upgrade. Keep up the great work.

I loved this app until they started charging to access info about serious crimes around me; as a woman living alone, I thought this app would help me be more aware of my surroundings, but instead, I have to pay to feel more secure. Disappointing.

I think that Citizen is an app that everyone should have installed on their phone. While I don’t have any specific use of the app itself, being knowledgeable local disturbances can be beneficial when examining media’s portrayal of events and happenings.

Unless you pay, they will bombard you with notifications that you cannot disable. If you wear an apple watch, the amount of non-stop intrusion will make you want to punch them in the face

They make you pay to see sex offenders in your area. They don’t care about safety. They care about money

Honestly I’ve had this app for years and it genuinely was good when I everyone could use it. Now you have to be a premium member to do anything. I glance at it now when there’s a commotion nearby. But at this point I’m waiting for the day where I can’t even use it anymore because I’m not a “member”

You heard correctly. The vast number of those who participate on this platform are clowns, bigots, racists and rage-baiters. Nothing feels 'safe' with this app and you'll end up leaving feeling the world is about to end...and it's the homeless people's fault...and Black & Brown people....or Trump people. It's sick and without formal moderation. EXCEPT THAT THEY'LL REMOVE YOUR ACTUAL WITNESS POSTS. As for performance: the marketing is so invasive that features have stopped working. It's next to impossible to record an event without it expecting a subscription. The 'developers' are out of touch; the app now requires your 'precise' location and will not operate correctly if you don't give it access; however, you can't grant access because the app goes to the wrong settings page in your iPhone. How is this not addressed? So I'm in LA but now get Manhattan when I click the map. There are also duplicate posts which make nobody's lives safer or informed. All these platforms seem so desperate to monetize over actual service. It's pathetic.

Banned from comment with no notification, explanation, or avenue to correct. I will stop promoting this by word of mouth and start communicating how trash is it to try and scrape so much money off of people just to have a geo-focused social access point. The scams are still up and people trash eachother and law enforcement in the comments, but I got banned for saying "thank you for covering this". Literally my last and only chat on this app. No checks and balances, no oversight, no communication.
