Not always accurate
Change of heart. I originally gave it 1 star. When I bought this app it indicated that I was going to get 5+ inches of rain in my area. That is enough to scare anyone. All other apps indicate 1 to 2 inches. As the rain event for closer it became more accurate. Not so great on forecasting, but helpful when reviewing historical data. Thanks.

Very accurate for my location
Seems accurate and matches my outside pool increase level. With a pool i have to maintain the water level within 5” for the skimmers to work properly. If too much rainfall I have to lower it so I downloaded this app to see how accurate it would be…after 3 days of rain…so far so good.
Amazing App
I can’t believe how accurate this app is. For comparison my rain gauge is a distance from my house, out in the open, so that I can be sure I’m getting accurate measures and no blowoff from the roof etc. In the year that I’ve used the app, my rain gauge and Raindrop match every time! How is that possible? The people at Raindrop are geniuses as far as I can tell. They were the smart kids in school. 😊

Informative
I loaded Raindrop to track rainfall during an expected heavy rainfall period. I was able to see in near realtime the accumulation. I only wish I could see the data source so I’d have a better understanding of accuracy.
Perfect
I have often looked for information on rainfall, but it is difficult to find on weather apps and even on government websites. This app very quickly shows history for 12 hrs, 24 hrs, week, month and YTD and also compares to average. This is exactly what I have been looking for and it is very easy to use!

Finally!
Yes an app that finally gives me what I want, rain totals by the hour, daily, monthly and the year. It’s so easy to use. I can keep track for my garden and check my loved ones too. Thanks!
Great App
I’ve only had this app a couple of weeks, but so far it’s doing quite well. I normally don’t rate apps til I’ve had them for a while, but the customer service here has been fantastic. I had a couple of questions, and Rylan answered them very quickly. I had a couple more questions, and right back he came with answers. As long as you realize this app is a general indication of the amount of rainfall in your area, I believe you’ll be satisfied. Remember, it can rain several inches across the fence, and you won’t get a drop. Keep that in your mind when you use this app and you should be happy.
Update:
This app just keeps getting better and better. Rylan has been working hard to make improvements. You won’t go wrong with this app.

Amazing simple app
This app has been so helpful for my landscaping business. I can track precipitation on multiple properties almost in real time which really helps us plan maintenance.
Farm Necessity
We are a farm family with farms spread over quite a few miles. If we need to check the rainfall amounts at a farm, we just have to look on Raindrop. This saves us time and money! Thank you!
Response from developer
RainDrop is perfect for that! I'm glad you're saving time and money!
Review
For 15 years I have lived on a south Mississippi Coastal River with substantial tidal flows and high flood potential from upstream rain. This app contains by far the most accurate and timely information available. Plus the tech support and responses to questions are always quick and accurate. Great product, great support, if just obtaining a single site information all free. Thank you Raindrop.
