Yaakov Matan @ yaakovmatan · Follow A word of praise for Home Front Command for a significant round of improvements that seems to have come through the app. Short and clear push instructions, understandable icons for everyone, and most importantly, a calming and pleasant event-end sound. Not something to take for granted, when credit is due.

Merav Rahat @ MyrbRht · Follow On the margins, kudos to Home Front Command for upgrading the app, and now there is a difference between the icon and sound of an alert, a siren, and the end of an event. Great service.

Udi @ shmeludi · Follow Whoever designed the Home Front Command app without the option to turn off the sound alert for the end of an event was not even half a kid.

Mendi Frommer @ MendiFrommer · Follow How is it that a musical country like this, which has been at the top of the Eurovision table for years, cannot produce one normal calming sound for an app?

Dor Shinar @ DorShinar · Follow Replying to @ AranEfrat Find a gentle sound that fits the alert, so it does not sound like I finished a level in Mario.

Efrat Aran @ AranEfrat But until now it was just another heart attack alert, so this is better.

The Academy of the Hebrew Language @ HebAcademy · Follow For the debate over whether the new sound is pleasant to the ear, we will add a new term for you: cacophony in Hebrew, tatzrum.

Avigail GG @ AvigailGg · Follow The new “the event has ended” sound is nice, there was laughter in the shelter when it suddenly rang out so ceremoniously for everyone. But if there are many sirens again in the middle of the night, I prefer the quiet version.
