5/5Lifesavers
I live in Midlothian Texas and on multiple occasions TSC has been a Godsend. For some reason it just isn’t important that the local stations cover our area during significant storms. It all started one time when our tornado sirens were going off but no one was talking about it on the news. My daughter, myself and all our pets were in our safe place. I was texting friends to see if they had heard anything and one of them told me to get on TSCs site and from that point forward I always put them on during any weather issues because there was actually a tornado in our area. Thank you TSC.

2/5What happened to the radar??
I usually don’t write reviews but this really annoyed me. I’ve been using this app for over a year and while it’s not my favorite because the predictions aren’t very correct I mostly used it for the radar anyways, which is all janky now after the last update. I liked the different settings to customize the radar appearance and in my experience it was more accurate than the other weather app I have. There’s no slider to control the radar playback anymore, you can’t see the boundary for any warnings and it’s just overall more difficult and frustrating to use. Even when I go into the “… & more” icon in the bottom right and click on the radar there, it’s glitched and won’t let me use the slider for the playback on radar. It also shows a question mark in the middle of the screen and is super laggy when I try to zoom in or out. Not going to uninstall yet in hopes that it will get fixed but if it’s not better in a few weeks I’m uninstalling😔

5/5Love Texas Storm Chasers!
I loved TSC before but now even more since they have the app! It seems that right about the time I’m thinking “What will the temp be tomorrow? What I should wear”, boom, a TSC notification comes through telling me what I need to know. I don’t ever even check my local TV station app anymore. Not only that, for work my husband travels in Oklahoma/Arkansas/Louisiana (in addition to Texas) and Texas Storm Chasers information about bad weather in those states has literally persuaded him to choose another week for his business travel. Keep up the great work, TSC!

3/5Love the app, only one small issue that I have found
While the app is amazing overall, there is one detail that prevents me from giving a 5 star review. That issue involves notifications, specifically, the app badge. With every notification sent out, the number of notifications shown in the app badge increases. Regardless of the number of times I open the app, the app bad notification does not clear out, I am currently sitting at 27 reported notifications. There does not appear to be a way to mark these as “read”, thus, I have a perpetually increasing number of unread notifications. *EDIT* Edit to add a second issue of significance, this time, with the radar. While on my iPad Pro, the radar does not utilize the entire screen, it uses about a quarter of the screen.

2/5Selling our data?
Got this app because we live in the middle of nowhere Texas and the updates they do on X are great. I decided to support Texans doing Texan things. I got the ad free upgrade because you support people with dollars. Problem is that the app hates it if you don’t give them location access. It spits out an error like it cannot just pull the information from the last location you searched. There’s only one reason they would like to force you to use a gps location vs a location you set, and that’s so they can gather your info to sell. They may not be selling it, but the app not working smoothly without the gps location on leads me to believe that they really want that valuable location data. 2 stars once you have to enter your location EVERY time you open the app. If you want to see the radar, it starts in Pennsylvania even though it’s the TEXAS storm chaser app. If you’re gonna default it outside of Texas, at least make it Austin. Forecasts (once you enter your location every time) are good. Map is lacking, but you’re making improvements. Just make it so you can set the location and forget it and it’d be 4.5 stars
