Alerts do not arrive

Alerts need you to be registered (Me, then Continue with Google or Apple) and notifications allowed for LabariMap in your phone's settings. In the app, the Alerts tab shows your alert area, how serious a story must be, and the alerts sent to you. Quiet hours hold back all but the most serious stories at night.

The number on the app icon

It counts the alerts you have not seen yet and goes back to nought when you open the Alerts tab. If it never shows, turn on badges (app icon badges) for LabariMap in your phone's notification settings.

Registering and your account

The map, the route check and reports work without an account. Registering is only for alerts. You can delete your account at any time.

Where the news comes from

Stories are gathered from Nigerian news outlets and read by software; editors review the ones it is unsure about. How it works explains more.
