Can’t turn sound off

The web site is great (apart from the obvious cookie issues), but the app is completely ruined for the want of one simple feature: turn the sound off. Who wants that incessant clicking all the time it’s running?!

Nice

Overall very good but pls let us choose the location/area we want covered manually

cool app

seems to work

Doesn’t work under latest iOS update

Crashes on opening.

Un bel outil de prévention

Me permet de débrancher mes antennes de radio en fonction de l’ évolution du système orageux.
Superbe appli dont je ne me passe plus.

Registers insufficient events

Seems to register only half of the strikes and some are extremely delayed. I’ve had several lightning strikes near me and none are recorded in the app.

A KEEPER !!!

I WOULD NOT WANT TO BE WITHOUT IT…
I’ve been using this app for several years now and it has been working its little tail off. Its free and fabulous. Get it loaded and you’ll get notifications like never before …. Yeah, baby!

Lacks the thoroughness of PC app

I use the more advanced PC app. The two are strikingly different.
PC app shows a ton of info

Great App For Tracking Lightning

I enjoy the outdoors and this app makes it possible to track lightning so I can get to shelter.

Tolle App

Ist selbsterklärend, übersichtlich und hilfreich.

A valuable app

An amazing valued app for us up here on the Great Lakes where we get some of the most wicked lightning strikes and storms, are almost always amplified by "lake affect ". This app keeps me in the know and way ahead when a storm is on its way the closer the strikes, the closer to my location. I'm alerted and prepared. I use every day I can watch lightning all around the world.
Thank you developers for your hard work, it makes a difference in our lives.

Very useful lightning tracker

While I wouldn’t rely solely on any app to tell me to get out of a storm, this is one of the few I use regularly. I would be happy to pay to remove the ads, but that does not seem to be an option, and they are not too intrusive.

Blitzing good app

This is a brilliant app can keep alerted and see when risk of lightning is close by. Easy to use clearly visible data.

Très bien

Très pratique pour les stressés des orages afin de suivre les progressions en temps réel (moins stressant de voir l’évolution en temps réel plutôt que de rester sur des prévisions vagues et souvent plus anxiogènes).

It is very accurate

Useful and accurate

Don’t use it much, but when I need it works.

I haven’t needed to use this app very often. However, when weather conditions show the potential for lightning it it fast, accurate, and effective. No problems.

Well worth having.

App rating

Overall, I like the app. Things I don’t like are that even when I can see a huge bolt, but it doesn’t always show on the app.
And, the distance circle I have to notify me is orange.the strike dots are yellow and orange so hard to see them

Excellent

Great adjunct for sailors and outdoors-types who NEED to know the proximity of lightning strikes

Reliable alerts but the map doesn’t always update

A very useful app for alerting of nearby lightning strikes. When it works, it’s great. However there seems to be a problem with the map updates taking a long time and sometimes not registering a strike at all. I find myself checking the lightningmaps.org website to see where the strike occurred. However the push notification works well so it’s still useful.

Used to be great

Nothing like it used to be. The app rarely reports storms, even when I can see the lightning!
