It doesn’t really seem like there’s any “secret sauce” there. What’s to stop someone who knows more about development from making a better version?

There are lots of better versions that exist. Unfortunately they haven’t received the same amount of traction, which is important for this type of app. Here’s one: fire-app.net

How is this any better? From the site it appears to also be closed source with no security audit and using push notifications.

It’s better because you can download it directly from the site.

That only solves one problem, unfortunately. Other than that, the FIRE app seems to have the same problems as the ICEBlock app.
