What's New in Hurricane Tracker For iPad

5.1

June 27, 2023

- We are introducing active storm widgets! No more opening the app to see if there are active systems. See this information right on your home screen! Small widget - will display up to 4 storm types. When there are active systems, this widget will only display storm types with active storms. When there are no active storms, it will display 4 storm categories (hurricanes, tropical storms, depressions & invests) showing "0" storms. Medium widget - will always display up the 5 storm types even if they are "0". Widgets will automatically refresh and pull the latest storm counts from the server. Widgets will also update when you launch the app. When you tap on a widget, you will be taken to the "Current Storms" section of the app to view information on active storms. Storm types with active systems will animate and show the number of active storms within each storm type. The number represents how many active systems there currently are within that storm type. For example, if "hurricanes" is showing a "1" then that means there is one active hurricane we are tracking. The storm types are hurricanes (red), tropical storms (orange), depressions (green), potential tropical cyclones (blue), and invests (teal). Note: Due to limited space within the small widget, it will only show up to 4 storm types at once. The medium widget will always show the status of all 5 storm types. Widgets will display Atlantic or Eastern Pacific storm counts based on your "default basin settings" located in the settings panel of the app. - Bug fixes

User reviews

Used to be a nice app

Used to work fine. Latest redesign gives you lots of things that look like you could be able to tap but they do nothing. Also seems like everything has moved behind a paywall. I made a bookmark for the National Hurricane Center… easy to use and more info.

Suddenly behind a paywall

This app was free to use for years. Suddenly everything of any use is behind a paywall. What a terrible thing to do to long-time users.

Money money money!

I got this app years ago. The features are great if you pay. Each time I use it, there’s another feature that’s no longer available and is now a part of the paid program. I’m deleting it. It’s no longer useful.

Used to be my go-to app

Used to be a great app to keep me up-to-date on hurricane activity. Now it seems, most all graphics are hidden behind a paywall. Guess I’m back to the App Store to find something else.

Money hog

This app used to be good. Now you have to pay for basic data. No one cares anymore about the average individual looking for information important to life.
