Hard to see

I have a hard time seeing the text at times. White text over a light blue background with white clouds. For anyone with a slight visual impairment, this is the dumbest combination the designers could come up with. If you use a light background, DO NOT use a light coloured text. There needs to be a lot more contrast to make it legible for everyone.

Slow down the radar

Have noticed the radar has sped up. You can’t even get a chance to see the detail. I sure you could get a seizure if you watched it too long. Add a feature that allows you to slow down the frame rate on the radar as it virtually useless at getting any Timelapse data

Keeper

I’ve been using the SkyTracker app for a while now and really like the 24 future cast to study the map for upcoming weather.

Needs Repair

The weather statements and weather warnings cause the app to freeze and crash. Overnight it consumed 27% of my battery while it was running in the background. There wasn’t even any active weather going on. Time to delete it.
