Great, detailed information
I do love being informed about the storms coming my way, but what I would love to see is an updated app that can be loaded onto an iPad or a computer with more details and not just a blow up of the image, where you have to scroll around to see everything on the screen.
Going through hurricane Martin, I was a little frustrated, using my iPhone and blowing up the screen. Also, the updates were late in coming to the app. It was about an hour behind what I was seeing on the news. Of course, if I had internet but no tv, it would have been enough to make informed decisions.
I also had trouble trying to log in to the website on my computer.
Overall, this is a wonderful and powerful service that could use a few tweaks.
Thank you.

Hurricane Tracker
It's a fantastic app, as a east coast resident I proud too say that I use this app 2-4 times daily and at hurricane season it could be up to unlimited times. I've been through hurricanes and this app gives me what I need for info. Thanks, it's a very useful tool in my life area and showing types/categories of hurricanes and usage for weather forecasting. Awesome app, appreciate the tool. It’s the best info app for hurricanes and weather there is, great for me during the hurricane season.
For years past and years to come I feel I’m going to be using the app very often

MY “GO TO”
I’ve been using this app for several years, now. During the hurricane season I check the app, daily, because I trust the information presented, and with a little mental effort, I can form my own forecast that meets my needs for that particular day, and I don’t have to wait for other forecasts and updates to be published. As an example, because of this app, I was able to predict Hurricane Sandy more than a week before “official” forecasts were published. No great abilities on my part, I just used the information presented by the app. Now, with Hurricane Milton spinning up in the Gulf, I added the optional graphics package. This not only added another layer to the information available to me, but the graphics are available to me whenever I want or need them. Based on past experiences with this app, the details and dependability of these new features should prove useful and rewarding.

What Happened?
After recently moving to Florida and seeing a need for more specialized weather monitoring tools I downloaded this Hurricane tracker app. It worked great and helped with preparing and planning for weather related events. During the 2024 hurricane season the app started to push, via pop ups, for upgraded options and financial support. The pop up’s were annoying but the app had been helpful so I paid for the premium and chose highest level. Since the upgrade the pop ups have not gone away and are annoying enough that I find I hesitate to use the app at all. It’s to bad they can’t sort that out and stop the pop up once you upgrade.

Excellent Coverage
I’m a Snow Bird from Canada with home in Lee County south of Fort Myers FL. I have relied on this app to stay informed of storm movement and growing potential of hurricane activity. The app is the most up to date and clear, truthful information available to those of us that need this critical information to make what could be life or death decisions. I’m thankful for the myriad of info this app offers to me all in one spot. Thank you!

Very disappointed with latest updates.
Still a good app, better than any other "free" APP and used to be much easier to navigate the more detailed sections. Very disappointed that several things have been changed with latest update making many things no longer available for "free" now have to pay for upgrades to access info that has been free for as long as I can remember after finding and using this APP.
Plus extremely aggravating that you can’t even read or study the full details of any storm / hurricane due to the constant “ UPGRADE NOW “ pop up. I have actually found another hurricane APP.
Actually has extra info & detailed info. Not as easy to use as this APP but not near the hassle of this one.
Only use this as back up ( until the upgrade poo up starts going on which is usually every 2 mins ) because this one more user friendly. Or was. Before greed of money set in & those ?@&$?! Upgrade now Pop up starts

The best
I’ve been using this app for several years now. Every year it gets better and has always been reliable and sometimes better than our local news and not as eager to predict the worst for every storm like some cable news and weather apps. The premium graphics are clear and detailed although the basic graphics are also very good. I live in coastal Georgia and we need good storm information that we can rely on. This app has served well through several hurricaines and other named storms. I also use it to keeep track of storms in other parts of the country where we have relatives. That kind of in depth information is not always easy to find for areas that aren’t local. I will continue to use this app for as long as it’s available.

Crappy App
Update: it can much worse. Constantly has me reentering my user name etc for premium. Do not waste your money on premium. If any developer is reading this let me know how to get a refund.
: thought this app couldn’t get much worse but it did. Even though I bought the premium it is now asking me to log in every time. This is developer laziness. Do not recommend spending any money on this app. It is a good App but constantly bombards me with ads to upgrade to premium, which I’ve already done! If you buy the premium it should take you directly there. Instead it takes you to a page where it asks you to purchase the premium subscription or log in when I’m already logged in. And in the meantime still pushes me to ads to upgrade! Way too many unnecessary steps that make the App a pain to use. Should be an easy fix if any of the App developers are reading this.

Comprehensive App!
Although the information presented is available for free on government websites, this app does a superior job in aggregating relevant hurricane info and graphics. You are paying for their expertise in finding the data on dozens of sometimes obscure government websites, displaying it, and it is well worth it! As a Floridian and a retired safety professional, I discovered several graphics that I wasn't familiar with. So, the educational value was well worth the price A nice touch is the audio reports and push advisories.
