Why did I support them early on? RENTWARE
What a waste. I helped them get started with my $$ now they want yearly fees as much or more than original purchase. —— I just needed a second or third view of weather coming my way. So now I have to stick with the free TV apps. Maybe someday there will be som low cost decent weather apps without all the bells and whistles for the rest of us. >>> I feel cheated for supporting them when they were small now to be told… thanks sucker! So sad you can’t pay our freight anymore🥱 It was attitudes by developers like this in the 1990s that led to piracy. People laid out funds for good HW only to find they couldn’t afford the SW. ——Maybe too many young people don’t budget to realize they’re buying a new iPhone 16 pro every year in rentware fees.

Keeps jumping back to my location
Original post: I’ve been using this app for a few years now, it’s been nothing short of great. In the last few months, when I open the app and it shows my location, but if I try to move out of my area or zoom out to see where a storm is, it will jump back to my location. The only fix I found was to delete the app and reinstall. I did this one and will try again. This issue is NOT happening on my fiancé’s phone. I’m not sure why it’s happening to me. I will try the same method before and hope that it works again. If there was another radar that was better or equal, I would uninstall it and be done, but this app is superior to all, and I just want it to work correctly. Please advise if there’s something you know of that could be causing this for me when it’s not for others. I want to give this app the 5 stars it deserves.

My go to weather app for well over a decade - but the constant pop up subscription notifications. 😒
I’ll STILL use this app, just FYI…. the past few months when I open the app, I’ll have no weather at all showing, only a blank map. I have to totally close it and reopen to fix that “bug”. ….but THEN the pop up notifications to pay for subscription, and review - enter my email address (when I already did a few times), it’s annoying.

Annoying Pop Ups
I do not appreciate these incessant popups asking me to subscribe to your subscription service. If it were an honest service, you wouldn’t have to do it in a scummy way by sometimes having a small X in the top right corner, and other times having a small “not now” link at the bottom. You’re clearly desperate to get people to sign up, and the more you bug me about it the more I will say NO. If this were an honest company I would consider it, but you have to use scummy tactics like a timeshare salesman. You also stole my product that I already paid for.
I will be finding a new radar app and I suggest others do the same. This radar company is scummy and I would not recommend it.

Expensive Nagware but better
Original: The radar is great. As of April 2024, recent design change releases are not improvements. I have a lot of saved locations and the icons have become so big that I can’t see the radar map when zoomed out. The now constant nagging for in-app purchases, pretty much every time I open the app, is super frustrating. The growing clutter of unwanted links and feature upgrade buttons on most every menu is getting in the way of checking the weather. Please shrink the location icons or make them disappear when zoomed out and quiet the solicitations. And the new non-weather “discover” tab is just annoying. The developer has gone from one-time purchase to subscription making this purchased app an exercise in frustration without further subscribing at a steep ~$50/year which I have to assume would eliminate the now prominent nagging and make it wonderful. $50/year from even just 20,000 iPhone subscribers would be fantastic if you can get it ($1M/year).
