I want to download the AlertCops APP on my phone ... but the only one that comes up is AlertCops 5.0. Is that the same thing? It only has a rating of 2 out of 5 stars ... and FYI, I live in Italy and attempting to download from Italy with my Italian SIM for what that's worth.

Mine is v 6.2.9; but doesn’t currently work.
 
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
I have version 6.2.9 which allowed me to set it up in the UK, but then kept on telling me I had no internet connection (at home).
But when I did the Primitivo in September it worked fine. I just tried it again (in the UK) and I get the no internet message again. Very strange.
Maybe its a location thing to avoid alerts outside of Spain, if so, Id expect a more sensible message on screen when denying a connection.

As to the original question, my Iphone app store also shows V5.0
 
Perfect memento/gift in a presentation box. Engraving available, 25 character max.
AppStore for iPhone says V5.0 but when I scroll down it says Version History - 3w ago - Version 6.2.9

After downloading it, the app opens but soon gets stuck and says it needs an internet connection to work.

When using VPN with Madrid as connection point, the app opens and I see that it is version v.6.2.9 but the startup process soon stalls, eventually saying it needs an internet connection.

Conclusion: Must be some kind of geo-blocking ... 🥴

PS: Correction, when I use VPN with Madrid as connection point and switch off WiFi, this newest version of the AlertCop app works. Conclusion is still the same as before.
