## What is DTN?

The DTN Ag Weather Tools app for the Apple iPhone — enhanced to provide additional mobile decision support.

The agriculture industry’s first weather app delivers exclusive GPS-based roaming alerts, top-rated forecasts, touch screen interactive weather displays and unique ag commentary. This app helps producers improve operational planning with highly-local farm-level forecasts, and gives them advance notice to weather risks via customized alerts. 

Highlights: 
• Gauge — track current and historical precipitation and evapotranspiration data with farm-level precision.

• Patented roaming alerts — create custom alert thresholds for forecasted and observed weather conditions, precipitation amounts, dangerous storm attributes, and more. Our app automatically updates your preferences with our exclusive, location-sensitive roaming alert technology. This ensures that you will be the first to know when weather will impact your current location. 

• DTN WindMonitor® — receive advanced notice on your Apple iPhone to let you know when winds will be too strong for spraying. 

• PrecipTimer® — know in advance when precipitation will start, how strong it will be, and what time it will end at your farm. 

• Interactive weather maps — access comprehensive layered satellite maps, animated radar, future radar, storm corridors, temperature, dew point, humidity, wind direction, and precipitation amounts. 

• Site-specific weather forecasts — get 36 hours of detailed hourly forecasts and 15 days of long-range forecasts — continually updated for the most current information. 

• Observed conditions — site-specific data for the temperature, humidity and wind that has impacted your farm. 

• Monitor multiple locations — receive alerts for where you are working as well as other locations of concern 

• Agriculture weather news & analysis — stay up to date with detailed weather-focused content from DTN’s meteorologists and journalists — including a daily market weather outlook video.

### 1/5 — Can’t use the app

*2025-10-07*

The charged me $180 for yearly subscription but I can’t use it

### 2/5 — App is Ok

*2025-04-29*

I like to have a variety of weather apps to compare models but I don’t think I’ll pay for this one. It wasn’t good enough that I’d want to pay for it.

### 2/5 — Worked ok during trial

*2024-07-17*

Used the trial and decided to pay for the annual subscription. The upgrade loaded fine and the app functioned as expected until I closed it and reopened the app. Then the message said my subscription expired and I need to resubscribe. I deleted the app and reloaded it. Nothing. I checked my receipts and yes, I had a paid receipt. I contacted DTN. Nothing but a canned email saying how wonderful I am. 

At this point, I cannot recommend this app.

### 2/5 — Decent

*2023-06-14*

I have had this app for almost 10 years and is mediocre at best. Seems to crash a lot and in the last month places my location in Nebraska. Radar is above average for accuracy and forecast usually is pretty good. This app would be much better if the forecast section auto updated without having to switch location and it didn’t log you out.

### 1/5 — Crashes often, does not always work, does not always tell you how much it rained

*2022-08-11*

Crashes often, does not always work, does not always tell you how much it rained, struggles to load information when it does work, called dtn and struggle to get someone to look at the problem, when they do it is a hassle to get it fixed, not long till another problem arises

### 1/5 — Slow to update

*2022-07-26*

It is very slow to update the forecasts. It can take up to a week for it to load a current forecast. The only good part is the radar.

### 3/5 — Forecast and data better than app.

*2021-05-02, version 2.4.2*

This app is just OK. Have had it for over six years and seems temperamental when not connected to excellent Internet. Often lags or crashes and needs to be reloaded. Wish DTN would come out with a newer version that is more reliable and faster

### 1/5 — Not good

*2020-10-28*

Won’t send push notification. Not worth a crap. And judging by the ratings, you don’t care.

### 4/5 — Add the drought index

*2020-07-30*

I really enjoy your app. It’s very informative especially when it comes to gardening. You offer a good amount of information. Where it comes to the gauge if you could include the drought index. I can understand that would be a tough job. People like farmers & tree farmers would understand that number. As would some of your app users like myself. I was doing some reading and I would be interested in some classes & seminars.  

Have a great day and I look forward to using your app even more.

### 4/5 — Good weather app

*2020-03-18*

Have used this app for weather for a couple years now.  Everything is layed out nice and easy to navigate.  Just could use a little updating.
