    For several years this app has been functionally broken on Android. It's slow to update, and the push notifications do not work at all. So, there is no reason to use this app as opposed to just going to the website, which will be more current. Terrible.

    This app is STILL not working...the notifications still doesn't work correctly. I'm not getting the daily notification alerts about the government status. Just recently there was a status other then open and I didn't get that notice until I went into the app. Please fix this app pronto! Is anyone even doing anything to keep this app working and updated?

    Is OPM even supporting this app anymore? Used to notify, but gave no notifications for recent DC closures. Options menu is now a completely blank page, which is the opposite of helpful. App has also lost its name, so isn't easily findable on my phone anymore.
