In fact, the website works better with my iPad than this app. It should be priced at $0.99. ### 3/5 — Rick *2019-09-03, version 4.1* Could improve on the graphics and send notifications of severe weather ### 2/5 — Disappointed. *2019-08-04, version 4.1* It’s not worth the money. It’s not very user friendly. How come there is no full active satellite view ranging from Africa to the gulf. A lot of storms start off the coast of Africa. ### 2/5 — Regret Purchasing *2018-10-23, version 4.1* Mediocre graphics, front page ‘interactive’ map that isn’t, and no string models unlike the much more informative and elegant Max Tracker app. Simply re-displays NOAA feeds that are free there for the looking. ### 4/5 — Update *2017-10-04, version 3.5* Love the app but, unfortunately, it will not work with the IPhone update it does not work. ### 5/5 — Actualización *2017-09-25, version 3.5* Pongan actualización al iOS 11 ### 3/5 — Update the app *2017-07-06, version 3.5* It has not been updated since 2013 get on board. I just spent $1.99 on this. Update or I want a refund. ### 1/5 — Useless App *2016-10-01, version 3.5* Just downloaded and find the touchscreen for presentation selections doesn't work. Data is outdated and totally useless. ### 1/5 — Horrible! I want my money back!! *2016-09-17, version 3.5* Supposed to be able to use the interactive map. Supposed to be able to tap any storm activity to get more information, it just leads to a dead page. NOAA hurricane works better on a laptop or desktop, not as an app. Very disappointed!! ### 1/5 — Useless *2015-07-21, version 3.5* This app is not worth the money. My radar tells more and it's free. When you live in an area of hurricane potential, and ya pay for the ap you expect a little more information!! Want my money back! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not worth even free *2022-09-27, version 5.0* Not live, no cone projection, little details- piece of junk! ### 1/5 — Difficult *2022-09-09, version 5.0* I’m not trained in meteorology. All I want are: The forecast models and the cone predictions. To understand the junk on this app you’d better have a drgree in meteorology. It is a waste of my time. ### 1/5 — Could be much better *2021-07-14, version 4.5* This app does not present the info in landscape, so the tablet must be turned Ed 90 degrees to view the map. The map is still much smaller than the same info on the NOAA website. Plus, the info provided is not as comprehensive or easily accessed. Not worth downloading. ### 1/5 — Where’s it at? *2021-07-07, version 4.5* I downloaded this app hoping it would be a quick and easy way to track hurricanes. It appears to be a portal to NOAA. While that’s fine, I can’t seem to access things on NOAA’s page, like the prediction cones. Where’s that at? I wish I could’ve just reached out to the app developer, instead of writing a poor review hoping they’ll get back in touch with me, but it just took me to their website where it looks like they don’t even show this app any longer. Can I get my money back? Dave ### 1/5 — Just a link to the website you can access for free. *2020-06-23, version 4.5* There’s nothing to this app. It doesn’t work well on an iPad and all it does is take you to the free website accessible to anyone. Waste of money to the point it’s fraudulent. ### 1/5 — Worthless *2018-07-10, version 4.1* This app is worthless. You get more on the NOAA website, and free ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work for ios 11 *2018-05-28, version 3.5* Don’t waste your money. App doesn’t work with ios 11. Doesn’t even open. ### 1/5 — Does not work anymore *2017-10-02, version 3.5* Used to really like this and rely upon it. Maybe if enough people rate it at one star NOAA will update to work with current IOS. PLEASE UPDATE. people rely on this! ### 1/5 — Needs update for iOS11 ASAP *2017-09-23, version 3.5* We are in the middle of a very active hurricane season this year. PLEASE update this app to be compatible with iOS11 ASAP. Sincerely, a survivor of Hurricane Harvey in Corpus Christi, TX. ### 1/5 — I Phone 7 Plus *2017-09-01, version 3.5* I have rated this app at one star only because I could not rate it at one/half star. The reason for this is that does not work on my I Phone 7 Plus. And during this hurricane season that is not a good thing. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — No Image *2023-11-01, version 5.0* Stopped working, downloaded again and same, No Image. ### 5/5 — Trust *2022-09-24, version 5.0* You can be trusted. I am in Florida at this moment Thank you Ineke Husgen Hubfordau ### 5/5 — Why I rate this app so high *2022-07-10, version 5.0* I know that I can always go to the app and have very knowledgeable people that will never lie about the weather. ### 5/5 — Hurricane Season *2022-07-05, version 5.0* We live on the East coast. Have to keep up with what’s happening. ### 5/5 — Great to have NOAA at your fingertips. *2022-06-26, version 4.5* Great app. ### 5/5 — Confusing graphics *2021-07-10, version 4.5* Hard to find graphical pats of storms. Overall difficult to use not very intuitive graphical data. ### 5/5 — Recommend *2020-07-05, version 4.5* Great site and informative ### 5/5 — NOAA WEATHER RADIO *2020-06-03, version 4.5* Does NOT WORK on all stations. Please fix this problem. It only works in Florida. Thanks From Jack ### 5/5 — Hurr Center *2018-09-19, version 4.1* Great application for latest updates on hurricanes from the National Hurricane Center. ### 5/5 — iOS update? *2017-10-02, version 3.5* I love this app. I use it all the time. But Apple just updated their operating system for iPhone to iOS 11 which this app does not support. I hope you guys are working on that. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
