Scared the hell out of me. Was just dosing off in the chair when the phone went off. Hate seeing these things.
It's not that I don't care about AMBER alerts, but I'd rather not have my phone sound off like a klaxon at 3am, unless there's a tornado or a nuke headed my way.
This is the reason I had to disable all these notifications. If there was a way to change how I'm notified, e.g., a less disturbing tone, I'd like to have these notifications. My problem was, I live on the Eastern Shore and every time it rains, I get these "flood warning" alerts at 3 a.m. I really don't need to be startled out of bed every time it rains.
If you have an iPhone and would rather not get these alarms....
Open "Settings", go to "Notifications". Then scroll all the way to the bottom.
You can turn off "AMBER Alerts", and still leave "Emergency Alerts" enabled, if you wish.

I was half asleep, too. Rude awakening.
Nothing like being in a public place when dozens of phones go off at once.....k

We were at a restaurant last night when everyone's phone went off.
