We've listened to your feedback and continue to improve the Emergency app. This release includes improved location search, a redesigned Maps tab that displays Red Cross shelters and service sites with unique icons to make assistance easier to find — even if you haven't added a location — and a directly interactive Services Available banner that reduces the number of taps needed to find help.
