I've received two government alerts for severe weather. Works really well, nice feature.
Haven't had an amber alert yet, but I consider that a good thing.

There is somewhere on the net you can sign up for amber alerts. Try Google. I get the Amber alerts. Do not want any government alerts.
Didya read my post? I'm guessing not. thanks though

Thanks. Yes, that's a good thing, isn't it.
So you've gotten them for weather. Interesting.
I had a breaking news app before but its idea of "breaking news" and mine differed slightly. lol (sports??)
I like the idea of the government alerts (in an opt in opt out way)
On Verizon IP5 (at least) there's a setting at the bottom of the notification center. After "in notification center" and "not in notification center" there's a category called "government alerts".
There are two: "Amber alerts" and "Emergency alerts". Both of which toggle off.

Give the government a kiss for me!
Wow. You're a rude little chap.
