  1. 5/5Storm watch

    This app is in the top tier of my weather apps. It has not disappointed. This app woke me up in the middle of the night to alert me that my brother, three hundred miles away, was in a severe storm path. Called him next day, and he said it was dicey at the time of the alert. Check the test notification periodically to make sure it is functioning.

  2. 1/5Didn't work no support

    I had completely forgot about this app. Couldn't get it to work originally (couldn't set alerts). Then emailed them about 2 weeks ago. I uninstalled the phone and tried to restore the purchase and it wouldn't let me. Tried to make me sign in to an account. They replied saying I wasn't in their system. I then sent the receipts from iOS and it was crickets after that. I've now set the app to not auto renew. I'd suggest not subscribing through iOS if you want to try it. Then again with 3.3 stars I'm curious if it works at all. It never did for me. Probably because their system doesn't link to iOS.

  3. 5/5Storm spotter

    I am a storm spotter. I use this ap and RadarScope to chase and spot storms. I have used the weather alerts ap and many others but nothing compares to the accuracy of this one. No false alarms, no alarms about storms out of my range. This ap is extremely reliable vs the competition. Today during a tornado outbreak storm watch went off to let me know a tornado was near, while weather alerts failed to do so.

  4. 3/5No ability to exit overlay choices on latest generation of iPads

    It’s an ok app but needs some RAID to iron out the bug of the inability to exit overlay menu. I changed the choice of radar to SPC day one and I was unable to change the zoom level on the radar nor was I able to swipe down to get rid of overlay menu. It may be user induced, dunno as there wasn’t any directions on how to return back to the radar. Also, not sure if a bug or it was intended, when I changed the overlay to SPC day one, it covered up the radar. I didn’t see a transparency option so I could see the radar echos within the day one map. I couldn’t access the radar to zoom out to see if it was me or a bug encountered in first paragraph. As far as alerts, I get free alerts from Red Cross as well as a couple of free apps such as MyRadar app., I don’t see any reason to pay 12 bucks a month on something that is timely and free, and it should be free here.

  5. 1/5Help needed

    First you can’t change the map, all hybrid. Second on a iPhone trying to read the options of layers is awful it is all bunched up, terrible. You brag about alerts but to pay for them, plenty of other free apps that that is not a cost. Sorry but deleting. Update: Wow takes 2 weeks to get a response. I am using an iPhone 8 that all updates are current. The part that is very hard to read is where you click for the radar or it shows a somewhat of a description of what the day maybe through the day. So that is the issue but again with no “future radar” and no standard maps or even light or dark menu I will again delete the app.
