Development stopped? #216

Hi,

I was just testing this app in my phone and although I'm able to activate the alarm using the power button the alarm message never gets sent. The strange thing is that when I stop the alarm the "out of danger message" does get sent.

So my recipient gets the out of danger, but never getting any alert before.

I tested in 2 different phones with the same results, anybody experienced something like this?

Hi @anabelle ,

There could be multiple issues:-- 1) The latest code is in Dev branch-- which supports android 6 permissions support(which may be ur case, if you are referring Master branch)-- because by default permissions are off and you need to explicitly go in Settings and turn on the permissions"

2) IF above is not the case, you can tell us ur device name and the android versions you are using-- it will be easier for us to look into the issue, if there is any.

3) "out of danger" msg is not location permission based... and so it will be recieved , even if permissions are not given. Thats why , you are avle to see the "out of danger" message

Thank You Neetika
