A free app for load-shedding updates
Load Shedding Notifier is a free utility app developed by Abosoft. Load shedding manages electricity demand by temporarily cutting off power to certain areas. Moreover, with this mobile application, you can monitor the current status of load-shedding for Eskom. It will tell you when there will be an outage in your area and how long it might last.
The Load Shedding Notifier app notifies users of current Eskom load-shedding schedules, predicted outages, and scheduled maintenance periods. It can provide you with the schedules of all Eskom coverage areas nationwide and all municipal load-shedding schedules.
Packed with useful features
The Load Shedding Notifier was developed to assist South Africans. You can monitor the schedules for all Eskom-supplied areas nationwide and municipalities. It can cover more than 40 municipalities, including the City of Cape Town, Steve Tshwete Middelburg, Mogale City, Midstream Estate, Broadlands Estate, Buffalo City, Abaqulusi, Midstream Estate, and more. New areas are added regularly in response to demand. You can also try the EskomSePush app for similar features.
In addition, this tool can monitor the current status of Eskom's load-shedding program, alerting you if your area is scheduled for a power outage. This way, you can stay informed and get real-time monitoring if a power interruption occurs in your area. This platform allows you to configure the alert system. You can configure the time, notification you want to receive, notification ringtones, multiple configurable areas, and more.
It has a smooth and straightforward interface that anyone can easily navigate through the app. However, this tool does have a few issues to note. One of the notable downsides is the frequency of ads. There are times when every action you perform can prompt advertisements. There is also an instance where the load-shedding information provided in this application may not be as accurate as competitors' apps.
A handy app
Overall, Load Shedding Notifier is a handy, easy-to-use tool that provides information on all your load-shedding schedules. It can be a helpful app if you live in an area that often experiences this problem. It is designed with an intuitive interface that people of all skill levels can easily use. However, it is less extensive than other competitor apps in terms of accuracy, though some users may prefer this app.
