    V.ALRT Wireless Personal Emergency Alert Device

    • Good idea, very poorly executed
    • and she had to wait for my daughter to come home from work 4 hours later to rescue her!!!It’s a good idea but not reliable at all!!!
    • Great idea just not ready for prime time
    • However, I like the idea and it worked well when it worked, so I reordered it to see if the first one was a fluke
    • Anyway, I think it's a good idea and potentially useful, but I have reservations.
    • Great idea,
    • Great idea, but technology in this price range is still lacking.
    • Good idea but horribly unreliable, which makes it unacceptable for an emergency device
    • Great idea just not ready for prime time

    • Loved the idea and had high hopes it would fit our needs.
    • This is a genuinely great idea, and it does work as promised, but I'm taking away a star because honestly
    • Turns out my iPhone is too ancient to work with this device, so I can't really assess the device itself until I replace the phone (not a bad idea every decade or so, anyway), but when I reported that the device wouldn't pair with the phone, I got a prompt response, with several followup emails and suggestions as to the specs of any replacement phone so it would work.
    • neat idea.
    • Great idea but software needs to be reworked to reconnect.
    • Otherwise, it is a cute idea that may work well for some folks
    • compatible!I sure would have appreciated finding that out before I opened the package, and I thought I did my part in finding out ahead of time
    • The device is not as reliable as I'd like as far as connectivity and ability to send the emergency SMS message.
    • it won't work as that's about 40' with a standard hollow core door between.
