Value

For me- not worth the initial fee for what you get.

Wonderful app, just needs to be CarPlay enabled

I’ve had this app for years. Depended on it for job related functions as well as home life. I live in the PNW mountains and no weather station has accurate forecasts so use the app to track snow and rain showers to time activities around. As basic as “should I let the dogs out now or wait for a bit until the rain lets up?” Years ago, I used the relative velocity display during a tornado watch and saw a rotation starting near my hotel. Opened the curtain to see a tornado touchdown a few hundred yards from me. Would be great if they could CarPlay enable this. As an RV’er and someone who drives a lot, it would be great to quickly pull up on the vehicle display to see if I’m driving into light rain or a heavy storm cell, rain or snow, etc.

No UK support, no refunds. Avoid.

This is an outrageous rip off. Not detailed in the App Store and less data than was previously versions of DTN’s previously great Weather Pro (now hobbled and innacurate) and Weather Earth ( withdrawn shortly into a pro subscription).

No refunds forthcoming.

Avoid.

Sorry but this is a joke

So I paid £100 for what I thought was a fully featured satellite ans Weather app. In fact, all it consists of a radar map. Nothing else. No menu. No options of any kind. I’ve asked for a refund.

Money back please

Same information on environment Canada. Thought it would have much more information….please send money back.

Please make changelog popup optional

First of all, this is the best radar app by far. Kudos to the developers for making such an awesome app.

To the developers: please add a setting so the user can disable the changelog popping up when the app starts up. It’s great that the app is being updated so frequently, but that also means that there’s this annoying changelog window that pops up, covering the radar, that must be dismissed when there has been a new update to the app. The more app updates there are (a good thing), the more annoying changelog window pop-ups happen (a bad thing). I would prefer to be able to look at the changelog every once in a while, and not be forced to on every single update when the app starts. A simple toggle in the settings would allow me to disable changelog pop-up on app startup.

Ultimate Weather App

Living in tornado alley, I specifically got this app to look at radar velocity which can help identify rotation within thunderstorms. I was demonstrating this exact feature of the app to someone when I caught the telltale signs of rotation from a storm 30 miles to the South. Sure enough, the tornado warning came through just a few minutes later. It was amazing to watch this happen in real time. That’s just one of the amazing features that Radar Scope offers. My personal favorite is the directional lines for the path of each storm. No more guessing where the storm is headed. While I’m not a big fan of the cost for Pro2, the Pro1 plan still offers a plethora of advanced features. Also great to finally find a weather app that isn’t bogged down with ads. I highly recommend this app for weather trackers, chasers, and anyone like me that obsesses over the science of weather.

Best professional weather app I have ever used! +One suggestion

I use RadarScope every day to view different storms that pop up on a storm active day. (I want to become a storm chaser/meteorologist one day) This app is very useful and very cool to use and interpret different storm’s details, locating rotation, seeing how tall the storm is, and much, much more. In my opinion, this is Radar Omega but 5 of them combined. Now with the suggestion, I would like it if you could change the color of he Draw Tool, wether that would be very customizable like a color wheel, or just like 5 or more colors already sorted to choose. But overall, this is the best app I have ever used for professional weather enthusiasts, if you are reading this and leaning towards getting RadarScope, DO IT! This app is awesome! 5/5 stars all the way
