Mine are turned off. I'm not getting woken up in the middle of a work night again. Is this not possible in newer phones or something?


You can disable them on iOS

Instead of hating amber alerts, why not direct that hate at the people who cause amber alerts instead? Like if a pedo kidnaps a child, hate the pedo instead of the system designed to raise awareness of the kidnapping
You were from Australia, right? Majority of amber alerts are teens staying out late or were involved in a custody dispute, they usually don't have much information either and you can't justify annoying thousands or millions over a child that went missing in another county.

I received a blue alert last week. Never heard of that type and had to look it up. Basically meant there was someone armed and dangerous that police wanted within the county.

Scary stuff be happening with those alerts.

I dont mind the concept but I feel like they're a little too loose with declaring them. Most of the time it seems to be a kid with their dad and it's just some shit where the parents dont get along. The kid was never actually in danger.

I understand that time is of the essence so I'm not sure what a good solution would be though.

But yeah the blaring noise is an issue if you havent/cant turn it off. Not sure why it cant be a normal textI dont imagine it waking up people in the middle of the joint is going to cause them to immediately get out of bed and start patrolling the streets, theyll see it in the morning before they are out and about.

lol I had a dream one night where we were having nuclear fallout (like ww3) and I woke up to an amber alert and I thought it was one of Trump's "Presidential Alerts" and I literally started screaming in my apartment for a few seconds.

It is pretty disheartening to see how many people in here are posting "it's always for somewhere far away from me" and clearly not comprehending that it's sending these alerts out to cover the possible travel range for an abduction. If it's sending an alert to you about a kidnapping in a city two hours away it's because it happened two hours ago and it could be the car next to you on the highway.

My brother's friend had an AMBER Alert for being out past curfew at age 17. Is the criteria that loose?
