5/5This is a must app no matter where you live in the US
I Use it and I especially have all my family use it! It is the best Watch/Warning app there is! It will only alert you if you are in danger! Alerts you only if you are in the Polygon warning area! Most apps do it by county, so if you are asleep and there is something completely away from you in the other side of the county it won’t wake you up! You will be alerted Only if you are in the warned area!

2/5Do not like the update!!
This update last week was not bad at first. I was hoping the load time would improve, since we were on vacation with tornado warnings around us, but it was no better than before. But the thing I really dislike is changing the color of the watches and warnings. As far back as I can remember, the tornado warnings and watches were red and the thunderstorm warnings were yellow. Now the thunderstorm warnings and watches are in red. I just pulled up the map and about had a heart attack seeing a red warning barreling down on us. We do not have TV so the app is my only weather warning and changing the colors to the opposite of what they were was a really bad move IMO. Maybe rethink the color change and the update wouldn’t be so bad.

5/5Weather reporting
I love this app with the hourly, daily, and interactive Map of current weather going on in my area plus being able to see weather coming my way and the voice notification of thunderstorms and tornadoes in our area a great asset to have on my phone !

4/5My preferred app for weather
I prefer this app for weather over others because it gives me the most information and the best radar. But after the last update, it is nearly impossible to read the low temperatures in the daily section because the temps are in black on a very dark background. Should’ve been obvious to the app developer.

4/5Needs work
This app is the best for radar and easy understanding of what is happening on the map. However, it gives an error saying app is not available in your location sometimes, is slow to load when it does actually work, and needs to be improved. Overall it’s the best for weather apps in my opinion especially for tornado and rotation warnings.
